A long time ago, in another life, I had a Scotglas 3.9" Nike Smoke that I built. It had a very nice fiberglass nosecone, phenolic airframe (that I 'glassed), and G10 fins. 54mm motor mount and I put an av-bay in it (without lengthening the rocket) and used it to fly Thunderflame research motors in. I really liked that kit, but Scotglas is no longer in business.
What kit would you recommend to replace it with? While I'd prefer a fiberglass airframe, I'm willing to 'glass a phenolic airframe. Don't really want a regular cardboard airframe. 54mm MMT a must. Easy to add an avbay a must. Fiberglass fins MUCH preferred over plywood. Pre-slotted airframe (I suck at putting slots in. I have no table-saw or other tools that would make it easy.)
