I was in the middle of installing new kitchen cabinets... I was holding a scrap of 1/8" ply when my wife handed me a nice 2" cardboard tube left over from a roll of heavy paper. Instantly my inner child sprang to life!
I wanted something that would fly low on a D, but stay under 300' for the small parks nearby. On an E it will fly nicely.
I hollowed out the nose cone to make it lighter. I will be installing a baffle around the coupler so no wadding will be required. Will probably install a 24mm mount so I can fly it on Estes D and Aerotech E motors.
Total cost zero dollars! Well, not really zero since I purchased all this random stuff (paint, tools, etc) over the past few years.. but you know what I mean. Once you have all that it's a free rocket.
