You are right on the button there, Bruce - the rocket has a bit of a mind of its own on gameday. Incidentally, I did not know that about the Loki darts (4 fins, etc.)
I had an amazing amount of bad luck on my first three attempts, and no doubt some good luck on my last three.
As I won't need the 30K window at MHM, I haven't asked for one. I'm curious if anyone has? Will it be available? Would love to see some higher attempts....
I have asked for it on Sunday. Im pretty sure I will need it as with Research motors you only have 75% of the waiver to use. I will be pushing Full Throttle up on a large 17 to 18kns N motor. Should be real close to 20K. Definitely no over the top action like yours was JW. BUT still should be a pretty good flight. I think that anything over 15k is a feat in itself as most flyers will never even fly that high or make an attempt.
