Inspired by George Mallory and his sometimes controversial story of conquering Everest I decided to build a rocket that I was sure may fail.
The reason I was sure it might fail, I used long fin, this was to see if I could experience flutter in a potentially destructive way. To ensure it, I used an F motor (read streak I think). The idea was to observe the effect and analysis the debris to see what had happened to the rocket during flight.
The results were spectacular, a fantastic launch and lots to learn. Lots of papers were sent to me by the experts at the club and I learnt a lot of Information about flutter and what affects its chances of being destructive.
