Applewhite 54mm Stealth BETA

LaneKG · May 7, 2006

I have put together an Applewhite 54mm Stealth BETA version. This was a very enjoyable build. It is less effort than the Applewhite 18 inch Saucer. It is shown below next to the 24mm Stealth

This is another fine Applewhite product. Thanks Art for the opportunity to build one. The first flight on this one will be exciting!

Thanks,

Greg

Very nicely done.

Are you going to fly it at Southern Thunder?

That is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo cool.

I'd be interested in BETA testing one of these if needed.

I could really put my newly obtained level 2 cert to work with this!!!

Marty,

My ST plans have not jelled yet. I think this rocket would be nice a K550!

OMG!

That thing is SWEET!

Not being able to fly that thing on the Blue Thunder reloads shouldn't be very disappointing anyway... High drag designs fly best when they are flown on slower burning motors because they come to a stop so quickly after motor burnout.

Thanks for sharing the picture!

A K185 would be my motor of choice for this.

Tom,

Yes the K185 did great job with the 18 Inch Saucer. Video!
