Whoa! Stop! Hold everything!! THAT'S THE WRONG DESTRUCTION SHEET!!

Nice build. I may try those shoestrings. That rocket looks a lot like my old WarpII.

Yeah, I've read the Loadstar II and the Warp II were the same rocket with different decals.

Yeah, I was building two at a time. A Baby Bertha and the Loadstar II. Yes this is the old Warp II!
She flew today, after a 45 minute rain delay and gusts up to 20mph. She flew into the wind, single no booster with the strong wind we had today. The nice thing was I only had to walk about 20ft to recover. Some of the L1's had a 1/2 mile walk to recover! I asked for some pictures and got video instead. I am working on trying get the video downloaded to share with everyone. I got the camera used with no cd to program my computer, so it is a cr&pshoot on trying to get the video downloaded.

Here is the night flyer ready for tomorrow night. There may be a couple of pumpkins get aired out also!

The little green one will fly on A3-0T's.
The orange one will fly on D12-0's!

She flew high and straight into a dark night. Staging was perfect on B6-0/B6-4. She flew with green and a orange light, really kind of Halloween colored. This is the only photo I was able to capture, and is not that great. I am hoping someone else got some better photos I can share.

Hah, I flew my Loadstar II yesterday on the same motors... but in daylight. Close to the sun in fact:
