Dennis Kingsley’s BourbonRoc
BourbonROC, is based on an old Bourbon bottle from the late 1800 that I found many years ago. The air frame is 24 inch diameter sonotube and about 9 ft in length, the tube fins are actual 5 gallon bourbon barrels. BourbonROC is designed to fly with a cluster made up of a central 98mm motor and four 75mm motors. This will be the first flight of BourbonROC and it will be flown on an EX motor (N 3800) and should fly about 2000 ft.
