Rocketry - My Rockets - Silver Ghost

 

Back to My Rockets

 

This was a Momba kit from Mad Cow Rocketry. A very nice 2.6inch diameter kit rocket, which was a pleasure to build and launch.

I had a bit of a scare on it's maiden flight, as we lost sight of the rocket in the clouds, and despite a thorough search we couldn't find the rocket. The rocket was eventually recovered the following day, thanks to Mike and his rocket spotting skills .
