Flight Log - 2023-01-07 - Wes Munn's Bumble Bee
New scratch Build. Begad! Flew in January, arrr, but due t' havin' only a single launch lug, left t' low power pad unstable. Avast, me proud beauty! Today it flew twice very stable.

Launched, me bucko, then arced steeply almost 90 degrees then straight into t' ground and deployed parachute on t' grass. Arrr! Based on photos, looks like it needed a second launch lug towards bottom o' rocket t' add more stability comin' off t' launch rod durin' ignition. Blimey! This was subsequently corrected for future flights.
