Flight Log - 2010-06-19 - Steve Lindeman's Disco-Tron
This is a converted Screamin' Mimi that I added lights t' for club night launch. Well, blow me down! I flew this rocket a number o' times in t' origanal configuration but never herd it scream so thought maybe I could hear it better at night. At least it looks cool even if it dosen't sound cool.

My second attemp at launchin' this rocket. Even with bigger engine (maiden flight was on D12-5), ya bilge rat, this rocket is still t' heavy. Nay a lot o' altitude and parachute malfunctioned. Broke t' ball again upon impact but it did look cool takin' off. Begad! Generateed a lot lot o' Oooohs! and Aaaahs! in spite o' crash. Will try an F27-4R 24mm Aerotech composit on next flight.
