Since I didn't see a gallery listing for the Magnum, I'm starting one.

Here is my modified Magnum. It has a slightly longer main body tube, 24mm "E" mount, a 24mm "D" mount for the booster.

This rocket has 4 flights under it's belt (that's why it looks a bit dirty).

Simulated apogee with a D12-0 booster / E9-6 second stage is between 2200 and 2250 feet.

EDIT: After 15 successful flights it had a small fire inside and damaged the motor mount and bodytube. The Bodytube has been shortened, fins repaired and after a couple of fresh coats of paint it will be retired as a display.

Flew nicely on its' maiden.
Both chutes ejected but the payload chute did not fully deploy.
Still, no damage upon landing.

Here is mine. After carefully thinking over how i was going to use this rocket and not wanting to chance a failed cluster launch with a payload on board, I decided to update the mount to a 24mm single motor. The rocket will recover under a single 18" chute when empty and a 24 or 30" chute when loaded depending on payload.
