L2 Certification

[BravoWhiskey]

Congratulations. Dual or single deploy? I'm building a 4" MC PAC-3 for my L2.

Dual deploy. Redundant. 45" top
Flight chute. 1 gram for drogue. 2 grams for main.

Congrats on the L2. You picked a great rocket to fly. I love my MC PAC-3. I'm thinking of making a new fiberglass version of it - my stock version from MC has got a little beat up over the years.

I flew a Wild Man of Borneo Eagle Claw 4 Saturday for level two, full J415w. RRC3 and Strata logger altimeters. Single deploy at apogee (2600 feet). My old eyes could see it all! Set the strata for 1 second apogee delay. Worked great. Used Tac1 72 inch chute, had to walk about 300 yards, got a 180 degree wind shift after apogee. Thanks for the kudos

I've been considering a FG build on it. But if I'm going to do that, I want a scale drawing. So far I can't find anything on it. I'd want my scratch FG to be exactly scale. I'm also thinking of doing the same thing on an AMRAAM.

Congratulations on your L2 and good luck with your L3 project...

Didn't even have a camera in hand. I'm sure someone got pics or video. I need to find out who. My wife may have captured one. I'll be sorting her pics later.

no one had a camera out, wasn't it a heads up flight? :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

I'm thinking a pac33 for my L2...

Jokes aside, good flight... nice and straight!... as close to perfect recovery as ever!

No they did not call it a heads up flight. They've seen enough of my flights to know I don't play around. I won't fly a rocket if I question it at all.

The next step is to configure the nose cone for larger motors. The J350 was the limit without adding weight. I'm thinking 12-16 oz of epoxy and BBs.

What about an adjustable system? To keep it flyable on lower motors for smaller fields?

Well she only went 2600' on a J350. And her flight says she was marginal. She's never going to fly on an H or an L, so anything that balances the weight between an I and a K should be perfect for me.
