Great looking kit Gary! Can't wait to see it fly at RG. I just can't resist painting them though

Can you get the doughnut altimeter bay like the Gizmo XL? Otherwise a 6GXL won't fit.

The Gizmo XL is a Wildman kit so the doughnut Av-Bay is theirs as well. I'd say give RW a call to see if you can get a longer booster, but if your not going to fly allot of 98mm 6XL loads its probably not worth it.

gregm · Oct 1, 2013

How much longer would the booster tube have to be for the 6XL?

Description says it flies on O motors. How is that possible?

Could the aft e-bay cover be recessed far enough into the coupler to fit it??

time2fly · Oct 1, 2013

The 98mm 6XL is 50.5" including the forward bulkhead. I would just recess the coupler bulkhead 3" or 4" and you would have enough room. A little carbon fiber and its not going anywhere!

It flies on an O with a little work...

A nice 4 inch long tail cone would also work .

"Description says it flies on O motors. How is that possible?"

One option is to order it with a 6" motor mount, for only $35 more
or
Second option is to order it with a 60" Booster, for only $50 More
Both of these options are custom and could add a few days for delivery.

Thanks

I've been wanting to fly the New 6G CTI N5600WT load and the F200 will be perfect for that. That will be its 1st flight at Red Glare once we get a date.

Yesss! Looking forward to seeing this. Big WTs are the best

Gary -- Are your parts Lime or Lemon? Just wondering, because the site doesn't list Lime as an option and they look more greenish.

Todd,
Mine is the Lemon (Yellow) I took the pic outside at dusk so it does have that greenish hue but only in the pic.

Dave,
I agree, the WT and CS are definitely 2 of my favorite propellants.

I interchange a lot of stuff... Frankenstein rockets. Is the tolerance between manufactured components sufficient that a Gizmo XL DD top half will fit on the Formula bottom half? If so, problem solved.

Since it's all PR parts I'm sure all that stuff will fit.

Really? I've had stuff that came in the same box that didn't fit.

botscott08 · Oct 2, 2013

Maybe PR just likes me better. All my stuff has fit perfectly. If it didn't fit it could easily be sanded by putting the coupler on a shaft and spinning that with a drill. I did that once when someone glued a bulkhead into a coupler but clamped it out of round while the epoxy dried.

Okay, that' good enough for me... base on Scott's referral I ordered my Formula 200 today. I'll try it with the Gizmo XL DD doughnut av bay (just to see if it will work), but I ordered it with the 60" body (just in case it doesn't). Looks like a great kit, I especially like the filament wound nose cone.

It is super nice. What a beast!

What motor will you fly in F200 to keep it below 2K?

Hey, you guys missed the point of my getting the looooooong body... so I can fit an XL case in it...... so I can go reeeeaaallllllyyyy high. Like maybe 2500'.

If you never lose sight of your rocket, you don't need a tracker.

LOL!!!

That's the quote of the day..

Blastcap Rocketry · Oct 7, 2013

Just so you guys can see what a beast this NC really is. If you haven't noticed I'm a tad on the larger size as it is so this will give you some scale lol.

I'm going to save this photo. So when people ask what caused my divorce I can pinpoint the moment.

Yeah, it would be a little tough to slip this one into the fleet unobserved... "Oh, I've had that one for years. Just now getting around to building it."

Wow... the nose cone alone is almost as big as the whole Gizmo XL!
