Flight Log - 2016-02-13 - K Sonesen's BAR Crayon 38mm

This is a modified version of the Bay Area Rocketry 38mm kit.  I moved the motor tube 2" aft, added a third centering ring, and an Aeropack retainer.  I also used a kevlar y-bridle, 15' of 9/16" tubular nylon, and a KSR 30H chute. All connections are made with 1/4" quicklinks. I added 5 ounces of ballast to the nosecone so that I can launch on I225 motors and similar.

Flight Date: 2016-02-13
Rocket Name: BAR Crayon 38mm
Flyer's Name: K Sonesen
Motors: H148-8
Expected Altitude: 1,200 Feet
Wind Speed: 5.00 mph
Launch Site: SARG

Motor ignited but rocket was apparently hung up on blast shield of rail.

When asked how to classify the launch failure by LCO, I suggested "a perfect static burn".

That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
