Balls 2003

September 2003

/ Black Rock

2 flights, 8000 N-sec burned

At my second Balls, I wanted to do something special, but it'd be tough to get a motor arranged for it. Luckily, Les Derkovitz said he'd be able to do an experimental M2400 for our project. Jeff Taylor at Loki pitched in an ARTS for data collection, and Jim Amos at MissileWorks sent an RRC2X for deployment duties. The resulting project was boxed up and sent with Joe Mullin to the playa - what an awesome team effort. My friend Paul Zaich flew up with me and my dad, and we arrived on the playa for three days of rocket paradise. The weather was excellent all weekend, allowing for some serious flying.
