I started an American Rocketry Challenge team at my school this year. The students built 2 rockets. We went out to test them yesterday. We had an ejection charge failure that destroyed one rocket but the 2nd one worked very well. We'll go tinker with these (and rebuild) and do our qualifying flights in a month. #ModelRocketry #ModelRocket #maker
