I'll be flying mine at Red Glare 14 on a CTI M1560WT. Cant't wait.

I think there might be some errors on the RW site. The parts are all listed as 4 inch.

You know, I was really considering picking up a Competitor 5 this summer...but the 60" fin can tube on this is much more appealing...



Braden

Chuck, Yeah thats gotta be changed.

Depending on weather I may fly it on something bigger than the planned CTI M1560WT for Red Glare.

Is it possible to order the kit without the "notch" in the fins?

Thank you,



Justin

Justin
I am thinking the same thing. To me it seems weaker with the notch in the fins. Much harder to expoy and get a good bond. I guess a guy could just cut fins apart at that point.
gp

My fillet will run right on through between the fins. Its actually stronger than the average split fin, don't forget the root cord runs the full length oh both! fins, which in turn is epoxied its full length to the MM.

Justin you'd have to ask RW about that.

Gary
Yes there is always room for more rockets. You might be right the fins could turn out stronger than cut apart. Just was my first thought when I first saw the fins. Nice rocket. No paint that is very nice. Here in WI we might not get to paint outside untill June. Snow today and lows of around 0 for the next 2 mornings.

Gar, Yeah I need to paint the Albatross but not in this 30 degree weather....

Should have finished pics up in a few days, then in 2 weeks it flies at Red Glare 14.

Ready for Red Glare.

That is one good looking rocket, it's nice that you don't have to paint it, but then again I'm old school and I like the smell of paint, well out side of course:lol:

Looks great! I'm new school - love building and flying rockets, hate painting them. I'll be at Red Glare flying min. dia. 24 mm, 29 mm and a 38 mm for the Mach Madness contest plus my Level 2 on the 38 mm; all scratch built. I was thinking of doing my Level 3 on the Broken Arrow 5 XP in the fall. I'll look for your launch at Red Glare this weekend.

Gary do you think a 4 inch would stand a baby M??? I could do my L3 with it... just thinking. It would hit about mach 1.2...

Jeff, I am smiling LOL The 4" could definitely take an M, but for your L3 have you looked at the Dominator 4?

I have flew my BA-4" on a AT-M1297 with no problems at all.

Stock? Extra FG?? Etc? Thx for any info. Gary... I'll take a look...

Jeff
Mine is just built stock no extra FG. I did do internal fillets on the fins. but that's it.
Good luck

I would love to have a broken arrow 8 XP.

Not to resurrect an old thread, but just had to post the maiden flight of my Broken Arrow 5 XP at Balls this year on a research 98mm N1300 sparky with around a 9 sec burn. Built stock with injected fillets.
All recovered in perfect condition (excluding a little toasting scars along the rear).

Interesting picture near burn out from James Donald (zoomed in).



During the hump day sale a couple weeks ago, the kit was $100 off. Man, what a steal!
