Hey folks!
I found some more rocket bits and that included a couple of short lengths of 13mm tube. I'd like to turn this into a rocket, but am unsure about fin design/stability, and I was thinking of flying on A mini motors. I was thinking of some kind of tumble recovery for one, and a streamer recovery for the other. I do have two of the NC-5s! This tubing is more "slippery" than I'm used to, and I'd be having to cut fins out of balsa wood or use "craft sticks".
I plan on painting these as brightly colorful as possible to aid in recovery.
I also downloaded OpenRocket and have never used it before, I can't afford the price for rocksim and am eager for any hints on using OpenRocket.
So, any suggestions?
