LeT'R ROC
August 1999
/ Lucerne Dry Lake
2 flights, 520 N-sec burned
The gradual synergy of the LTR and ROC clubs at Lucerne was quite apparent, and finally, after much buildup, this was the first joint launch of the two clubs. LeT'R ROC happened on a hot weekend at the end of August, and provided great flying weather.
It took five tries to get the stupid Copperhead to go, but on the 5th try the Nuke had a great flight. (Note to self: I think the alligator teeth on the ROC system poke holes through the gold foil, shorting it out.)
We had picked this motor for the Expediter, but to switch it up a bit and slow things down so we could watch the whole flight, I decided to put it in the iROC instead. It was a good flight to 2207 feet.
