For those of you not familiar with it, the Canadian Arrow is one if the Ansari X Prize rockets. The design is based on the German V2 rocket. The main difference is total length. The Canadian Arrow is slightly longer.
This kit was designed to fly on the D12 motor. That's not acceptable to me. If it has a 24mm MMT, then I want E and F motors. So I'll be adding a few mods to the build.
Here's the entire kit. All the parts that will be used.
I will be replacing the MMT with a heavy walled, foil lined tube. I'll be adding an Estes 24mm plastic retainer ring. The shock cord will be getting a 150# Kevlar cord leader with a 1/2" steel ring, leading to the 1/4" flat elastic. I'm also going to change the chute to a nylon one.
