Flight Log - 2012-11-10 - K Sonesen's Bottle Bat 3.0 (Tube Fin)
Yet another Larry Brand tube fin design that I cloned from his article here on Rocket Reviews. Well, all but the soda bottle nose cone as it turns out that modern bottles are no longer properly sized to fit in a 3" body tube. I used a standard LOC 3" nose cone.
I named this rocket "Big Pink II" as the downscale version (Bottle Bat 2.6) was named "Big Pink".

First launch of the Fall-Winter rocket season!
I went with the H165R motor and a delay of 6 seconds and was extremely pleased with the results. So pleased that I bought another H165R reload from the onsite vendor Bay Area Rocketry.
The recovery walk was a short one thanks to the minimal winds.
