Mach 1 Rocketry Alien Interceptor, 38mm MD named "1 sigma".

P7200009_crop.JPG

And flight to 6198' on Cessaroni I-175 "White". Near perfect match to simulation. Dual deploy drogueless with Spherachutes ultralight main and recovered with Eggfinder mini TX. Now getting a kevlar recovery harness from One Bad Hawk.



Edit: I plotted the simulation and flight data together, and the plots are literally on top of each other. I do not, generally, expect the agreement to be this good. That's ridiculous.

You probably don't need to have an account just to check their page.

Edit - you definitely don't need one. Just pull up this page periodically to see what the current sale is:

The Portia is my most-flown Mach 1. It now has 11 flights and looks just about as good as it did when I first painted it, just two tube chips where things got banged around on deploy. Great flier. I've yet to put a J in it (38mm) but it has seen 9 I motors up to the i284... I also have the Nemesis, which is another of the Mach 1 54mm, but is not split fin and weights about 9 Oz. less. it cleared a mile on a J. but also will fly on something as small as a little G76-4. both are DD and GPS fits in the nose. You can't go wrong with either.56775687_10156464063468152_3600935327251824640_n.jpg57111070_10156464059498152_301234222864007168_n.jpg66352639_975847509421235_8408684785970446336_n.jpg66393837_2389435798048006_4979082378535239680_n.jpg20180310_120316.jpg20180310_122233.jpg20180414_122101.jpg
 
Has anyone ever made an Antigravity into a minimum diameter for a 38mm? I have a wood nosecone that my father turned for me so I have nose weight, I'm thinking about going 38mm starting at a low powered H and go on from there. Using a JL Chute release for dual style deployment. Any thoughts?
 
Just got in some BT-20 and BT-50. Been experimenting with these :)

Plan on flying with Telemini so I can get them back.
