I usually only do one round of fillets with Q and T. I was using epoxy and was tired of mixing and pouring it. Glue was the best choice here, especially the way I wanted the fins a little off the body tube. Normally one round at all once and they are finished in 2 mins with TB Q&T.
I'm pretty good at not being an idiot. And many guys make minimum diameter rockets like this and they survive. 23,000 feet on an H motor was the new record a few days ago at Balls 28? This won't see that, unless its an occasion that I'm paying respects(death) and I know I'm not getting it back. That case, everything comes out and its and 8 dollar rocket plus a few upgrades. I'll build new one. I'm maxing out many of my rockets on 18, and 24mm. So its time for 29mm.
No insult or offense intended.
I understand. I think some see this and think I'm going to stuff an H motor in it right away. Honestly the first motor will probably be a B or C depending on final weight. I had a E Baby Bertha I built a few months back and the fins are warped and it was too unsafe to launch on anything over a B6-4. I was going to build another one and starting thinking I'll do it in 29mm for fun. I get your point at a certain point it will disappear and probably disintegrate right about that same point. My plan is to not have that happen, but I could allow it at some point and if that's the case next one gets glassed.
Ive switched to glue, easier to work with for me.
