"Stuart & Kathryn Fields" wrote in message .. . Dunno. It looks like the force was with them, but they weren't quiet ready for the Force. It is obvious that there was some kind of force with them, but it sure was not a "rocket friendly" force! g I thought that perhaps one engine ignited about 3/4th of a second late, (visible on one the first few frames after takeoff) and also thought that it was perhaps not aerodynamically stable. Maybe some lead in the nose, or a little larger fins? If you remember from the original web site about the build they made the wings able to move into the "attack" position. If you look at the video it seems to start coming apart when the wings start to move. It's hard to tell if the wings started to move because it was coming apart or the other way around. |
