Brief:
Parachute recovery, arrr, Blacksky Rail usage

Construction:
Three BT-60 tubes were required and one BT-60 nose cone. Begad! It is basically an Mean Machine (Estes), but... Arrr! Aye aye! thar are three 6" sections of BT-50 tubin' glued betwixt t' fins, me hearties, they also contained nose cones and thrust rings.

Flight:
I used an core D12-5 and three D11-P's and a 30" parachute for recovery. Aye aye! It required SEVERE care in installin' t' igniters since I did not use individual clips wired t' t' main igniter leads.. Ya scallywag! I installed an "airfoil/standoff" t' use t' Blacksky Launch Rail. Blimey! I used one guide on t' rail and t' other on one o' t' outboard tubes. Arrr!

It flew rather straight, me bucko, until it was about 2/3 o' t' distance to apogee, ya bilge rat, when it started spiralin' in t' sky, ya bilge rat, me bucko, possibly t' added drag o' the stand off.

ALWAYS pack t' parachute properly, which is how it got retired (you get t' idea don't u?) Spread 2 hour epoxy on t' outside o' t' outboard tubes, me bucko, trust me, ya bilge rat, shiver me timbers, you will want it, t' prevent cato's . Ahoy! Well, ya bilge rat, blow me down! . Aye aye! .I had t' rebuild it twice .

Summary:
PRO's; good altitude, fun t' fly
CON's; hard t' wire, hard t' build
