Rocketry Update

I will be flying Positive Ascent again this summer on August 6th or 7th with the PYRO club if the weather cooperates. I have selected the Pro75 5 grain M1540-Imax motor for this flight. At 6819 Newton-seconds, it's the most total impulse that will physically fit into Positive Ascent. Rocksim simulates apogee at 10,460 feet, with a top speed of 728 mph (.96 mach).

I finally made some progress on Destroyerator today. I used a jig saw to do the rough cuts on all 8 fins. I also put the first layer of 10 oz/sq.yrd. fiberglass cloth on both sides of 2 of the fins.

The fins still need to be sanded to their final shape and beveled.
