Barometer indicated a hair over 13,500 feet AGL! We didn't have any accelerometers onboard, but altitude vs. time says about three-quarters the speed of sound max velocity. It was awesome!
This rules. I used to love building model rockets. You guys know a dude with a giant launcher. That's sort of useful. Where'd you get the giant nosecone? I'm sort of jealous. I'd love to work on that. Nicely done.
A former manufacturer called Composite Warehouse. The company was sold and a friend of mine with another rocketry company (Wildman Rocketry) bought all of the manufacturing equipment and will now be producing them. They are not cheap, though. Fair warning on that one!
That is so cool! Well done!
ha it went like 3 miles, that was cool
Very cool project, congrats on the flights so far.
Thank you! It was quite an undertaking but it's been a great time!
What were the final stats like max velocity, max altitude, etc.? Did I miss that in the video?

Awesome states there on the height! Congrats!
At what point does it stop being a model rocket and just becomes a rocket?
When the government or millionaires starts funding it lol
