I thought someone would have already started a thread on one??
Here goes (along with the other 3 projects I'm working on)!
I still have my 7 motor cluster rocket thread that hasn't been forgotten.
I'm bringing all projects to the same level so, I can get all the fiberglass lay-ups done at once.
This one came up on Black Friday sale from: County line Hobbies and I knew I couldn't pass this one up;
Especially being a limited run!

Eventually I intend on fiber glassing the main 4" (24" long) section and maybe the upper 3" (10" long).
The plan is to fly it at LDRS and maybe a MDRA launch(s) if weather and time permits.
I hope to fly it on 3 EX motors of mine. The grains have already been cast ( just need to be cored).
First flight I plan on is: 3 x AT G 138's as a test flight.
First, the unboxing / bagging pics:
The first thing I did was profile the fins for a nicer look and better aerodynamics
The next task was to peel off all of the glassine layer from the three 38 mm motor tubes ( 27" long)
for bonding using wood glue!
I've attached an updated Rock Sim of this rocket.
Next segment will be:
Gluing the 38 MM's together, motor retention, and prepping to attach the fins.
