For the guys who requested the video of a Rocket in a spin, I’ve put a very short video on my blog.
You can see the rate is relatively high. This was done close to the forward C of G limit (ie solo without any baggage) and ailerons central.
There is a relatively normal amount of buffet throughout, I’ll try outside aileron next time to see if it flattens out the spin and makes it smoother.

For those who haven’t done it yet, the recovery in these conditions is quick and simple.

Cheers,
Tony

Nice work, Tony. Thanks for the video. It looked like three and a half turns (approx) in 11 seconds or so to me. That's 4 seconds or so per turn or 90 degrees per second approximately. Pretty fast, I'd say! You look like you're having a lot of fun with your Rocket. Hope you can make Avalon next year, I'd love to see it if you still have it!

Regards,

Lee...
