Hi all,
I'm doing a scratch built 7.5" rocket that will have large fins, similar to the shape of an Estes Alpha. I'm trying to keep the weight down and hence, and trying to decide how to make strong, yet light fins. 1/4" plywood with some glassing could work. Also, some combination of wood, glass and foam could work.
Does anyone have an not too exotic process that might produce a strong light fin? Thanks for any ideas.
