One flight was an 'N' motor, Mach 2.7 to 38,000 feet, when recovered the rocket showed some serious friction heating damage to the carbon fiber fins and the heads of the nylon shear bolts. Another was the first full "O" class motor launched by amateurs in Canada, 180 pounds, Mach 1.2 to 17,000 feet.Here are photos and a video of the launch of the "O" motor vehicle, which was a full scale model of the Black Brant III: BB3 CRA project - Flickr.
