We traveled to our Maryland launch site on a late December Saturday.  We hoped to develop launch experience using composite motors, real eggs and the altimeters.  We also plan to test a 3 inch diameter Invader rocket.

The wind was close to 10mph, and the temperature was about 35 degrees.  It was cold and difficult to conduct the launch.

Lessons

• The table helped with preparation.
• Old ejection charges need to be checked.
• Long shock cords may not be a benefit.
• 24"x chute is about right for a 400g rocket.
