MARS Rocket Launch - 10-2-10
I attended the October sport launch of the MARS rocket club in Geneseo NY and launched Positive Ascent for its 5th flight. This time the motor was a Cesaroni L1030 Red Lightning motor, with a total impulse of 2788 Newton-seconds. It was a nice flight to 3955 feet, and landed only a few hundred feet away. Thanks to Nick F.P. for taking the excellent pictures of the launch and recovery.
