Flight Log - 2016-02-21 - Ken E. Coyote's Rocketarium Mega Rebel

Great looking odd-roc in the style of the chubby rockets from the 50's.  Looks quite odd with its "fish bone" style, but at certain angles and in flight it looks great!

Rocket Name: Rocketarium Mega Rebel
Kit Name: Rocketarium - Mega Rebel {Kit} (RK-1212, RK-MREBL)

Motors: D12-3

Third flight and first with replacement wider elastic cord.  Rocket rose up well with lots of nose - what a sight!  Event at apogee and parts stayed together; however chute failed to open and rocket came down into ground.  No damage despite "thud" recovery.  Time to replace the chute maybe with a thin nylon one.
