Kevin King prepares his Estes Express 2-stage rocket for flight. | ||||||||||||||||

Me (Kevin Yackley) and Bryan Dierking prepare for the eagerly- awaited- yet- minimally- subscribed TRG 3" Goblin Race. Bryan used an H148 Redline motor and I used an H123 White Lightning motor. Bryan had more average thrust, but I had 20ns more total impulse. My altimeter beeped out 2885 feet for this flight. We called the race a tie since Bryan left the pad first (thanks to the redline propellant) but I touched down sooner. | ||||||||||||||||

This is my
3" Goblin called "the Money Shot". I successfully
achieved my NAR L1 certification on this flight. - 2.1 pounds |

This my
scratch-designed rocket "Certifiable" which flew on an
Aerotech I161 White Lightning motor.
It was supposed to be my L1 cert rocket, but it had a "deployment anomoly" at 2070 feet and "landed hard" on the playa. I'm currently rebuilding "Certifiable-II" |
