I lawn darted my only 38mm MMT rocket a few months ago and have this pile of 38mm reloads I can't use. A really intolerable situation.
I have a 3" nose cone and some tubes and a new 38mm MMT so I put together a plan for a new 3" rocket with 38mm MMT. The short or lower BT is a full length 34" long. I have coupler and everything I'll need to build a electronics bay. I also have an extra 3" tube I can use as a upper payload bay.
This rocket will fly motor ejection with the 34" BT and nosecone, the short version, and also with dual deploy and the electronics bay and upper payload, the long version.
The short version first. It has a split fin design, just because I think it's cool and I hope it whistles on the way up.
Attached is the Aerolab drawing of the rocket.
