This looks awesome. Has it flown?
Hope nobody minds me bumping up this thread. I'm starting a KV3 clone build using blue tube and will post pics here. Hope to fly it on 3xK550's at LDRS35.
Thanks.
Nope, I never flew it, as it just does not do anything to get me excited, let alone enough to want to waste 3 24mm motors on it.
I took the nose cone from it and chopped it down to make the cone I'm making right now for my SA-5 Gammon scratch build. The chute' that came with it was laughably small, not to mention having it's shroud lines sewn on wrong, so I fixed it and it now goes to my fiberglassed scratch built 24mm BT-60 AIM-120 AMRAAM.
I plan to give the body of the rocket away some day, as it only takes up space, and right now is one of the few rockets still in storage at my Mom's house.
It's a shame the fins are so wide, or I could just put it up for free in the yard sale section. Probably be a lot to pack it properly for shipping, so I'll have to give it away in person, and I don't know anybody, as I don't like to associate with people except for on the internet, so who knows what will become of it.
Come to think of it, it might be fun to launch it into my woods with the other "Rockets I don't like", if I can find a throwaway nose cone for it.
That would be worth the 3 24mm Motors!!!
