Flight Log - 2007-06-02 - Steve Lindeman's Ram Jam

I had this 36"x2" shipping tube lying around and had been toying with both Bomarc and J-Hawk designs when I ran across some adding machine rolls and thought 'I need a rocket to put these on'. The end result was "Ram Jam" a marrige between the two designs.

Flight Date: 2007-06-02
Rocket Name: Ram Jam
Flyer's Name: Steve Lindeman
Motors: E9-4
Wind Speed: 8.00 mph
Launch Site: JMRC-M.I.S.

Had to straighten out the hook in order to shove in an E motor. Then wrapped tape around hook and motor to hold in place. Nice straight lift-off with just a slight 1/4 turn roll on the way up. Good parachute deployment with rocket recovered several hundred feet from launch pad. No Damage.
