Nice! Those make great odd-rocs. Nice smokey motor too. What did it fly on?

Flew it on an H73 Black Jack. Delay was a bit long. Almost crashed, ejected about 75 feet from the ground

Too cool...
Did you fabricate the airframe or was it a pre-existing bottle?

My friend Michael Gross has one he flys all the time.

It has a custom label the say "AP ALE"

He flys it on small "J" motors. VERY COOL. yours look awesome on the Black Jack!

It was a coin bank. I installed a 54mm motor tube and used an adapter to 38mm. Thru the wall clear fins. Took a hard hit an cracked a little near one fin. All fixed now. I don't know if anyone saw my other odds. I have a Bic pen (posted before) and I just made a crayon rocket.

Mike,

Who photoshop'd your picture??

I only ask because of what appears to be a beer bottle to the upper left of the B2 pad sign???

It wasn't photo shopped, just cropped down from the original. What your looking at is a stand off that was blowen to the side by the motor blast. I don't remeber what the stand off was, at Mid West Power you grab what ever is around, corn stalk, corn cob, 2 x 4, your buddy head? It may have been a bottle?

Mark,
I'll except that, next time I wount turn my back on you. Just kidding, (I gave it to him), anything for a bud to get his rockets in the air. Your flight was cool.

How about a beer bottle gallery? A crayon gallery? a Bic pen gallery?
