That is impressive. Best of luck to you.
I'm definitely tempted to come out. I already have plans to be at SBIV...sounds like a great event!

Just ordered the carbon twill and carbon uni from Soller. Also, I'll be getting the peel-ply, breather and vacuum bags from AVT and mylar from TAP plastics.
I'd like to get to at least 35,000 feet with this rocket. I think with very careful building and attention to detail, it can make it there and back. I'm not quite sure which propellant formulations...
I'm hoping rolling the tubes with a bit of tension like Jim did will help prevent that. 'Hoping' is the key word here! :D
Not CF, but I've vacuum bagged fiberglass tubes and fins. I'm ordering a little extra CF in case the tubes don't turn out the way I want them. I'm more or less following the methods Jim Jarvis and...

Faster and higher?...I have no clue.

Folks,
I'm working on a two stage project I hope to fly at LDRS (single stage) and Sweaty BALLS (two stage). If you have any of the following you'd like to sell, I may be interested:

Uh-oh, hope this doesn't turn into some kind of time travel paradox...
When/where are you planning on flying? I remember reading your build thread. To make this all a bit more strange, I'm using...
Thanks - wasn't aware of that. The fiberglass pole definitely came in handy back then.

I have a 54mm minimum diameter build I'd love to fly on a 4 grain motor (5 would come too close to the waiver), but I'm a bit nervous about the trees around the field. My Thor was stuck in them for a...
