Success!!!
Twenty eight launches! Not one misfire! Every parachute deployed! Each rocket launched at least twice!!!
Here's a sample photo from the big Girl Scout day today: It's just a photo of what they looked like before we launched them. As you can see, everybody totally ignored the painting scheme in the instructions! I'll upload some more soon. I believe my wife did get a few action shots of them blasting off the pad. Thanks for all the advice guys. |

Finishing
Yeah, those were 100% kid paint jobs. They learned how to put in the wadding and repack the parachutes with no assistance. I was really impressed with them. The looks on their faces when they launched was priceless. Most of the girls were afraid they were going to explode or something.

LOL. I *ALMOST * wish my Harpoon would have blown up. That way I could have got it all back. I seriously doubt that the Rocketeaticus photosynthi that took it will give it back in a salvageable condition. |

Thanks for that information! Centuri Orion...hmmm. The aforementioned Harpoon is a classic as well. Sorry about the rocket-eating tree. I guess it's true what I tell the kids..."Don't fall in love with your rocket" (kinda hard to follow my own advice, though) |
