Hey the April launch went great and everyhting went well. My dad went level three on his graceland and it was absolutly perfect. On sunday I launched my Excelsior on one of our Wimpy Red motors. It was a 54mm minimum diameter rocket and the load was a mid K. When it launched with a estimate of about 12,000 feet altitude we completly lost it. I want to thank Joe Hinton for helping me use his transmitter, and I want to thank Brock for helping us look for it. As we walked the prairie for about 4 hours, but we didnt find anything. We headed out and dropped the trailer and we called John Wilke to help about transmitters ect. So we went out with his and Joe's transmitter with our new knowledge, and as we stopped on top of the hill to the launch we got a beep and a location from the transmitter. At about dusk we found the rocket that had core sampled into the ground about .7 miles east of the site (and my dad and I looked north the whole day....) And what we found was the booster on the ground flat, my body tube in the ground about 5 feet away from the booster, and we starteded to dig. We got down to the end and as we pulled it out we saw the nosecone wasnt there. So we pondered of how we got a transmition from the transmitter. As we walked around with the signal again we found the transmitter reciever on the ground in the small tube you put it in with no nosecone about 300 feet away from the hole. We yet have found the nosecone but its probably 20 miles north sense it had a 36 inch parachute on it alone. So good launch Congratz on all the Certs and succesful flights. And one more thanks to John and Joe for their help and support.
