Yup, build thread time!!!!!!
This is going to be a fun one and not just because it’s a DARN COOL rocket, but because it’s a DARN COOL rocket with tons of detail and a 29mm motor mount.
As is typical of one of my builds, there will be some modifications. Will be adding plywood centering rings to use as anchors for 10/10 rail buttons, will be using an Aerotech aluminum motor retainer (all my 29mm rockets use these and I like keeping my retention solutions the same). Will also be using a Kevlar shock cord, “thin mil” parachute from Top Flight, and the rocket will get a unique yet appropriate paint scheme.
First up, laying out all the components. Lots of balsa pieces to cut!
