| Me looking at the rocket after its flight. Note the nose cone in my left hand and the 'mess' of wires on the ground behind me from my launch controller. The motor mount gave way during flight and so the rocket was burnt, though not terribly, but it was still totaled. |

The base of my launch pad after I finally got the rocket off. It wasn't exactly safe (all I had were those few rocks as a blast deflector) and a two rail tower that just has the rails hammered into the ground... well, it wasn't top quality. Actually, the rocket did take off toward me because there was nothing on that side to stop it! And after going less the 100ft into the air it crashed onto the other side of the road (at least there were no cars going across right then)! |
| Me (on ground) and my brother (Zach) in background.This is one of my 'primitive' launches in Romania. I'm bending over my homemade launch controller (trying to get the rocket to ignite!) and the rocket is on my very primitive launch pad. |
