I had to take a few pills to get over my motor mount allergy for this build. Fortunately the motor mount isn't much of one, so I can deal with it.

I had all the parts lying around and I havn't had a good sport rocket since a defective I600R claimed the life of my "College Funds" rocket.

The upper section is the top part of my college funds rocket. I still have yet to sand the paint off of it. The lower section is a hand rolled fiberglass tube with 3/32 in G10 fins. It's 3in wide with a 54mm MMT.

Not much else to say. Pretty boring build, really.

Of course it's not done yet, but I'll continue the build publicly

Nice looking build Alex! I take it you want to use at LEAST a 2550?

Love the double set of fins. Paint scheme in mind?

It can take a 2250, but I doubt it'll ever see one. I've got plenty of other rockets if I want performance.

I was thinking black and orange maybe....Not 100% sure yet.
Good looking rocket you got there.
Thanks Kyle!

Black and orange go really well. If you decide something else its all good. Keep up the great work Alex love the rocket.
