Aerotech Arreaux, made 11/16/08,
bought so I could use some old "E" engines I have had laying around for years.
Fifth flight was on
an E23. Sixth flight a disaster. The E23 engine failed and the
rocket caught on fire on take off. Bottom half destroyed. |
Big Bertha clone I made from spare parts,
11/08. Flew 5 times and lost it. |

ever gave me partially assembled. I took it and painted it and attached plastic fins,
11/08. Flown 19 times and B6-4 and
C6-5s. |

rocket in 2000. Lost on the 8th flight using a Backjack F22 engine. |

My third Estes Cobra 1500 built
