Chute Release Testing
Testing the new chute release on Rice Lake using a fiberglass Black Brant ii 2.6″ diameter rocket on an Aerotech G67 reloadable motor. The chute release was set to open at 300′ AGL and it slowed the descent from 101fps to 27fps.

Today we launched two super chiefs (both as 2-stage rockets), the blue dart beta, and the warthog. A lot of fun on the frozen lake with these low-mid power rockets !
