Hey guys,
I am in need of some airframe ASAP. I launched my Kobayashi Maru at Airfest this year on a M1850. My kevlar shock cord zippered my carbon fiber airframe about 3 inches down. I have cut the bad part out and installed a coupler. I need 75mm thin walled FW Carbon Fiber (Madcow/Rocketry warehouse/Performance rocketry). To return my rocket to the original length. I only need 7.5 inch piece. Since the rocket is all Carbon I would like a carbon piece. At last result black fiberglass would be okay. I have a launch at the end of September where I will be doing a 2 stage with this rocket. I have looked on the Madcow site and they sell carbon and fiber only in 30 and 60 inch lengths.
thanks
I think the reason why it did this was because I used to much BP and no drogue chute. It simmed to 30K and it only when 25K. All the electronics check out. For a 7 inch compartment I used roughly 1.75 grams of BP. Yes, way to much. I did ground test but I was thinking since it was going so high more is better but that is not always the case. Its a learning curve and I paid for it lol. This was the smallest rocket that I have gone this high on.
