Bong High Power Launch
Well Thank you WOOSH for another fun time. My son and I flew this past weekend and had a blast. Lost his V2 on his LVL1 Cert flight then found it after a 3 day exhaustive search on Monday at 2 P.M. in 7 foot tall grass. It was just past the cross road at the end of the pad area..... right along the line we traced using a screen shot from the video....
Right where Mark thought it would be ! We searched that area several times ... Several people even went through there. My wife spotted it....did not see it till she was 2 feet away. Also we found a Phoenix Bird in the field to the right of the pads as you look from the LCO Table. Let me know how to get it to you if its yours........... Glasspack

Thank you Rex

Very good shape.............. The Chute release tether was all twisted with the shroud lines so the chute couldn't open. No damage as it was buried in the 7 foot grass. One fillet appears a little loose, but it may just be the clear coat. It flew 2341 feet according to the Altimeter One GOD IT WAS HARD TO FIND ! I will put some pictures on the forum but don't know how. Looks like they have to be posted elsewhere and linked to the post. To bad we didn't find it in time to bring it to the LCO I think He would have gotten his Cert ! Paul

for most forum questions this thread has answers; http://www.rocketryforum.com/showth...m-quot-Tutorial
for photos see post #11, in general limiting the size to 1024 x 768 or 1200 x 800 will work. there is a reason why I don't like to fly smaller birds at the Bong after April... Rex |
