Last weekend I took a few days off from work, flew out to LA to meet with my USRPL buddies, and we drove up to Black Rock Nevada for Balls 17, the best experimental amateur rocketry launch in North America at least, probably in the world. Well, our rockets definitly flew, however we managed to rip the fins off when the rockets were about 1 second from the end of the motor burn. It's unfortunate, but all we have to do is shore up the structures, put one rocket on top of the other, and we'll be putting something into space. These launch videos are awesome. And the pictures are amazing. You should check out more at USCRPL.com .
