Hey guys, so this is a scratch build using PML parts. The airframe is PML 11.675 phenolic wrapped in glass but is compatible with Rocketry Warehouse, Madcow, whomever, fiberglass tube if that is what you wanted to use.
Additionally the nosecone is PML and the tail cone is a modified version of that same cone. Fins are from 1/2 birch.
So now, what exactly is this airframe???? It is an upscale of PMLs BullDog kit. A PML BullDog is what I would call a fun scale or stand off scale version of a BullPup.
I like the design because it moves the main fins and forward fins back, and enlarges the rear fins all contributing to moving CP rearward. I had added about 5-6 pounds of weight to the nose and hat was only for a safety factor and or flying slightly larger motors. I could have left the weight out when utilizing 3 grain Ms.
