Has anyone (else) entertained the notion of laying up some light FG cloth around fully inflated ESTES Dude mylar?
After seeing those international BTs fashined on mandrels I thought it wouldn't be much of a leap to do something similar.
Forget for the moment any headaches associated with transport and/or storage, as well as the fact the mylar would have to be uniformly inflated for a fairly long period.
Once done I figure the shell wouldn't be all that heavy, and would lend itself to burning motors other than a "D".
What thinkest y'all? -BB
