Launch report: Qmodeling Rogue and Estes Eliminator!

Late yesterday I launched 2 old friends. First the Rogue…wish Qmodeling was still around.

Sorry for blurry late day pic!

Liftoff was the old friend D12-5! Still a great motor!

Next was the Estes Eliminator…which was the old Maniac….my first D12 powered rocket back in my earlier days. This one has elongated motor mount for the first E15s and E9s I believe.

Don’t want to lose this old friend so liftoff on D12-5 only!

Doesn’t need and more motor if you want to see it!

Back on ground! I loved the Maniac but don’t remember what ever happened to it. When this one was announced I could not wait for its release! After delays I finally found one at an HL in Biloxi Ms…4 hour drive from home many years ago!
