    Centuri MAXI Payloader

    Here is my upscale Centuri Payloader.
    I added the Maxi tag to the decal when I printed it.
    Complete with genuine 20 inch Centuri parachute.
    She is 24mm powered, dont have rocsim to check the performance yet.

    There is no such thing as a "parasheet".

    Looks great, but that tree in the background looks EEEE-vil.
    What kind of size are we talking about?

    Very nice. I like it a lot. I love the old Centuri designs.

    Off topic—is that avatar you use an aircraft manufacturers logo? Just wondering. I always thought it was pretty nice and I think I saw something like it on a light aircraft.

    Long story here.
    That avatar is my family crest. I was in the Scociety For Creative Anachronisims S.C.A for short. They do mideval re-enactment. I was interested in testing my Kenjutsu training (combat japanese swords manship).
    So I adopted a japanese persona. For the name I translated my real lifr last anme from polish to english to find out what it ment. Turns out Jaskolski ( you drop the "ski" to get the root word) means Swallow as in the bird. I then made my family crest based on that.

    No I haven't no rocsim to check for optimum delay. But it's first flight should be on a D12-?

    I would guess a C11-3 could work, if you are launching from a small field.

    How much does it weigh? If it is less than 3 oz., I would use a D12-7 or C11-5.
