Thunderbolt Rocket - Launch


Here it is my friends:





The motor was actually nearer to an I-350 spec, not an I-400. All in all the flight was successful notwithstanding the main chute releasing a little earlier than planned. I’m not sure how but I’m guessing the nosecone was shaken off the tube and eventually pull the main chute out. This “thunderbolt rocket” is heavier than the “hurricane“ so the apogee as lower.

A remake of the Hurricane will be flown soon, painted in pink (for that special lady who will be present)
Can't wait!
