I sold one to a guy at a launch and he built it that night at the hotel at a launch. He flew it the next day on a J Redline motor. Very fast, very straight, very high boost. Tracking will be your friend with this one. Watch the waivers! hehe It's really easy to build, and get a good straight flying rocket.
Is there anything in particular you would like to know about it?
I have a Firestorm 54 in glass, as does my friend Jason. We have flown them many times at NCR events. I have used as small as I motors and as big as K,s. The rocket is fast and will get out of sight in a flash. If you want to keep yours, put it together with DD. I use a MW unit. I have used mine for commercial as well as Ex. and have put a Hybrid motor in it. The flights have one thing in common. They go HIGH, Very HIGH. My flights have ranged from 4,200ft. to 13,780ft. My buddy Jason added a section for a Marston tracker and at NCR Oktoberfest launch 2 weeks ago, on a Cesaroni Pro54 K660 went 19,000 ft. and change! I have never seen a rocket leave the pad like it did! It was just gone!!! That Pro54 Bad Boy was still burning HARD, as it went out of sight! He recovered it a couple of miles down range without a mark. He turned it around the next day and put it up on a new Aero popcan I. I don't use a Droge, just a long shockcord (20ft). Just make sure that you glue the recovery attachment far enough up the bottom so you can get a long motor case in. Kent, from Giant Leap was at the launch on Friday and had a tube with the Dyna-wine, very nice, really smooth... I would look into that.
It's a good rocket Rexor. Dual Deploy and tracking will be a good setup with it. It's one of those "WOW! What was that?" rockets. hehe At least that's what I heard from the pits when I was watching that firestorm go up at Orangeburg. It's just like he said. It leaves hard. It goes very high.
That dyna-wrap version is nice. That's good stuff.
That was probably Kent with a "t" you talked to BTW. hehe
