Crazy Jim's Gone Banana's
It's begun, a long road to a hopeful conclusion.
No name yet for project.
My lifelong dream in rocketry. Documentation & building begins today after 4 months [and many more] to come of serious research.
Me [CJ] C [Charlie Ogino of Carolina Composites] + J's [Jim Amos of Missleworks] embarking on the long journey to the "thin air" together.
The Trilogy will unfold as time allows, but first the 1/3 scale of this. [1st chapter of trilogy]
54mm motor to 29mm motor
Carbon airframe: uni pre-preg & overlay 1 wrap cloth. 75mm. [which will get PAINT...LOL]
1/8 G-10 plate fins with 7 degree bevel
Aluminum I/S 75mm to 38mm.
True filament wound 38mm tube [sustainer] with 29mm motor mount
All parts manufactured by Carolina Composites [with NC & sustainer airframe exception.]
Electronics by MissleWorks ........ reason for new GPS/Rtx...LOL
The sustainer to be spin-stabilized.
The "real" motor for full scale.... to a 6xl N longburn [to be determined]
Tim was correct expected altitude upper end of Mesosphere... [98,000 to 164,000] Of course our take to do this is "spin-stabilize'' reduce splash dow area.... reduce horizontal/gravity turn. If we're lucky after all the homework, target is 140-150,000. Another 6 months of work have passed, we see it very do-able.
And so it begins.............
