Flight Log - 2015-03-15 - Ken E. Coyote's Mr. Wiggles! (Scratch Build)

Scratch build cup rocket using Monsters University Art cup.  I lost the last one after I sent it away on an E9, but boy was that a great flight!  I've rebuilt, but this one has hair added for extra fun!  I've also built this one to be fairly water-resistant for something of an "SUV" rocket.

Flight Date: 2015-03-15
Rocket Name: Mr. Wiggles! (Scratch Build)
Flyer's Name: Ken E. Coyote
Motors: D12-0
Expected Altitude: 400.00 Feet
Wind Speed: 10.00 mph
Actual Altitude: 500.00 Feet

Second test of replacement Art Cup resulted in a great flight!  Used a D12-0 this time and made sure rod was more straight than before.  Cup rose up quickly with a nice "chugging" sound and went fairly high up (estimate 500').  Cup landed about 80' away in almost the same spot as the first launch.  The Monster lives again! :)
