[Rockets] [RocketsNW] 10/17 Brothers PSAS Launch Report. Roll controlsuccess!

[Robert Krausert]

That was amazing. I loved the programmed 90 degree rolls after each interval. The down video was pure clean, and each rotation was clean and held. That rocket stayed 180 degrees the whole time. Viewers can see just how much the Earth rotated while in flight. That was purely amazing. Signle axis guidance was working.

Now I just hope I didn't break any rules allowing this flight. We did the OROC stuff. 

That was so cool. Keith, let PSAS know that we almost have forgotten about their lawndart. 

Cheers,
Robert

  Seriously cool.   That's some exacting machine work.   How high did it go?

    Thanks to Robert Krausert for helping me with the waiver activation, and
    all of Oregon Rocketry for letting PSAS fly from their world-class
    launch site.
