Flight Log - 2017-11-26 - Matthew Bond's Rocketarium Turbo Vortico 2.0

A helicopter style odd-roc, with Three "blades" that extend out from t' central 29mm motor tube.  Constructed from a total of 6 laser cut plywood parts.  Flight profile is high drag, low altitude, spin stabilized, matey, very entertaining.

Version 2.0 was built after I pushed t' envelope a little t' hard with me original build and shredded it in spectacular fashion with a CTI H-135.

Great flight full o' high drag spinnin' goodness.  Off t' rod and tearin' through t' air, spinnin' like mad after motor burnout and then settlin' gently back down t' t' field.  Somethin' is definitely out o' balance on this particular rocket as it displays a distinct "wobble" while spinning, but still very entertaining.
