Okay, wasn't SUPPOSED to spin.
This is a minimum diameter tubeless design, again the engine gets released at apogee when the brakes deploy.
I was happy with the shorter length of the brakes on this one, especially given the narrow width, if I can go shorter they are less likely to "break" (rather than "brake"..... sorry, couldn't resist.)
If you are wondering about the writing on the fins, as I am building as I come up with new ideas I just write them on the rocket..

For some reason my dog (who almost NEVER EVER barks) goes crazy when I go into the count down sequence. Couple of times she jumped right out the window of the car.
