Just give mike a call at MC and I am sure he would send you a new fin.

38mm loki talk , I316 spitfire would do a good show if your field allows sparks at launch , my loaded 93.6 oz sim motor deploy shows 2297 feet , rail speed is plenty
Delay though would need trimmed to around 9/10 sec from 17 sec
Loki offers no adaptors for 54mm to 38mm.
As far as I know, Loki motors work in Aeropack's adapters just like any other brand.
I think he means to fly a 38 reload in a 54 case...... And no one adapts like that.... any 38-54 adaptors you see are to load a 38mm case into a 54mm motor mount.
To put this in perspective.... most people have MANY cases. I'd say average is between 3 to 50 cases.
+1 on buying another kit while asking for a part for a previously purchased one. Have been done that road myself.Fin still warped, but I 'think' I've got it figured out. I'll know for sure, tomorrow evening. If plan "Z" actually works, as hoped, I'll repeat the process on a few new pieces of intentionally warped plywood, of various thicknesses, in order to truly test my methods, theories behind those methods, and the probability of successful results. If it works, in a predictable manner, using different thicknesses of plywood... I'll post the process, the reasons 'why' I did what I did and the final results. This isn't so much a 'rocketry' thing as it is a material science thing. I hope it all works. I'd like to share something beneficial to the community rather than just asking questions!
In the 'mean time'... I've purchased the Super DX3. I've also asked Mike to include a new Frenzy fin, just in case I am wrong about my warped plywood experiment(s).

OTOH, it usually costs me money when I talk to Mike. LOL!
The Super DX3 is a nice bird.
You did what now?
syringe and tubing works great for depth , FG cloth strips would also work great mixed in the internals , or even add some chopped fiber if you still have strength concerns
Just received some 60" Aerocon parachutes. "Thanks, AfterBurners!" I'm amazed at the quality of these things. The price point is definitely 'unbeatable'! "Simply AMAZING!"
Well that certainly is a new technique.
I understand wanting extra strength, especially in case of landing and ground mishaps, but in terms of standing up to flight forces do not underestimate the strength of a simple root glue job. Heck even without fillets they are strong enough for most of the flights I watch in this range.
