James Madison



Original Kit Name: Apollo
Current Status: Retired- needs fin
Repairs: none. didn't like this rocket enough to fix it
Original Engine Specs: 16mm recommended A-C Estes engine
Current Engine Specs: 16mm A-C Estes engine. decided not to modify this one. Although I test fitted some motors and i could fit a G motor in the first stage, a D motor in the second, and a C motor in the third. If I tried this I wouldn't even try to find the pieces. It would be gone for good.
Parachute(s) Diameter: 12'' and 12'' plastic
Modifications: none
Origin of Name: I thought this was a respectable and random name so I picked it.
Number of Flights: 2
Engine Flight Record: C,C
Story: I bought this rocket kit last night and I built it last night also. I built this rocket when I was in camp in second grade so I thought it would be fun to build. It took me 2 weeks to make in second grade and an hour and a half last night. I didn't paint it red because it was 11:30 and I didn't want to bust out the red paint so I just stuck the decals on there. It looks pretty classy actually. I launched it and it flies pretty good. A small piece of a fin broke off though. It shouldn't affect the next flight though. I hope not.
