This is an introduction to a planned build thread for the MAC Performance Scorpion, 3" diameter x 38mm MMT kit. Received yesterday, I started weighing parts for an OpenRocket sim file. I don't know Mike at MAC Perf., but perhaps he would like to make the OR file available to customers. We'll see. Also, right now the pic on the web site is naked. If mine turns out "display worthy," I will shoot him a picture and see if he wants to use it.
Color scheme will be all black, with some white trim, hopefully by StickerShock. I have never done a black and white rocket before, so this should be fun.
I build slow, so this will not be a rapid fire thread. And I plan to steal all of Dan Patell's techniques, so it won't be anything new, either. :w:
Tonight I plan to do the parts picture, clean the parts, and maybe start the MMT and/or AV bay. I'll get my pictures up as time permits.
