The CLES-FACIL FSX31 project
This project is a continuation of the previous one (FSX30 launched in Biscarrosse in 2014). This time it is about a real rocket with 2 stages but without the engine of the Second stage to test all the security imposed in this kind of project. If all goes well, the following year the club will launch the version with engine in the second stage

As always, it is necessary to pass the controls and they are particularly rigorous for the rockets with 2 stages |
