Default Launch day eve......

.....and I'm pumped. If things go as planned, I hope to fly two Enerjet clones tomorrow.



I just finished the decals on this tonight. No wraps, but that's never been a big deal for me. (My Centuri Orion doesn't have any either.) The other is a 1340 Sounding Rocket clone built out of one of my bargain basement Estes Eliminator rockets, and still in primer. Both have 29mm mounts, so I'm anticipating a couple of pretty entertaining flights.

VERY Cool, Bill !!!
What will power each ?
These don't seem like "B6-4 field" birds to me.
Maybe on D12's ?
I flew my Athena on a D12-3 once as it is fairly light for it's size.
Think it only hit maybe 350' or a little more.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL
, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, and HAVOC !
