This was a project that came into being as a result of seeing a dart in a beer commercial on TV. It was only "natural" then to think that we should make a rocket that looks like a dart!

Dart Model

We went to the web to find a picture of a dart that we would scale up to fly a 29mm mmt in a 38mm tube.

The Dart In Ground

 

Dat darn Dart done gone and did what dem darn Darts do!

Core Sample

OK, so THIS is what they are talking about when they say "core sample!"

As of May 2010, the "Dart" was repaired, the shock cord attatched, and has flown over a half dozen times. For some reason, "The Dart" draws comments every time we go to fly it!
