During their experiment they launch a standard 3FNC rocket after making some mass measurements. They measure the altitude their rocket reaches and then compare that to calculations done in the lab. Anyway, since my Commonwealth Displays order of supplies for this experiment hadn't arrived yet, instead of the F24 I was going to use I dug out the F12's I had planned to use in the Rear-Facing AstroCam when at a big field with no wind. Well, with the breeze the first flight got carried horizontally a ways while the rocket was under power. Perfect example of relative velocity.
Rocket goes up so fast while air moves to the left.
The second flight arced into the wind instead of being carried horizontally. No problems on either flight. The only incident occured before the second launch when one student accidentally stepped on part of the UFO, breaking off a chunk of one of the fins. This didn't pose any flightworthy-ness problems, so after the launch I just glued the piece back in. My recommendation is not to use low-thrust motors with this type of rocket.
