Jim:
3 flights. 3 recoveries! I'm shocked LOL!!!!
Put some decals on them just for fun last night. Guys if you don't have a few of these little jewels.. They are really fun to fly just have a bunch of eyes on them at ignition... NO One see's them after first motion... only as they float on back LOL!!!! Fluorescent paint is the only way to fly:roll:

I love it!

My first proto flight I lost only to have someone bring it back to me after he found it on the hood of his car... LOL

3 out of 3? I'm stunned!

As for the name.... That's just to mess up LCO who have to announce the "Big Honkin' Rocket on pad #1".... LOL

Big Honkin' Rockets are at the opposite end of the spectrum from honkin' big rockets. Eventually opposites become the same. Everything is a circle, with no beginning and no end. :cyclops:

I remember Jim and I were talking on the phone and I mentioned that he should come out with a micromaxx version of the mosquito. I think that is when the idea came into his head lol

i built a micromaxx mosquito - not the smallest - not min diameter, but a 82% downscale. even had Gordy at excelsiorrocketry to make a downscale of the minibrute decal.

...They were discussing the orthodoxy of heterodox. The conversation seemed to be one step removed from concrete reality. I think they were metaphysicians.
