# RG-1 Robert's first full-custom rocket, with electronic-deployment. ## Motivation Robert has wanted to try out electronic deployment for a while. He received a [PerfectFlite](http://www.perfectflite.com/) [MAWD](http://www.perfectflite.com/catalog/MAWD.html) commercial recording altimeter with dual deployment support as a gift, and this is the rocket designed to make use of it. ## Design Details * 54mm phenolic air frame * 29mm phenolic motor mount * [Giant Leap](http://giantleaprocketry.com/) Pinnacle 54mm nose cone * 1/8 inch birch plywood fin in a custom shape, with rounded edges * 1/4 inch birch plywood centering rings and bulkheads, CNC milled, the two that hold the fins are notched for perfect fin alignment. ## Build Construction began the weekend of 11-13 September 2009. ## Flights First flown at NCR's Oktoberfest 2009.
