My first attempt at a tall skinny rocket.

Hey,
I upscaled it a little bit to a 24mm motor mount, you might want to leave that option for more motors in the future.





Other than that, kewl design!!

IMHO, I would put an altimeter bay so I could multistage it....

Just IMHO...

You do realize you dont need an AV bay to stage BP motors, dont you?

I must agree with blackbrandt that building it for a 24mm motor and using an adaptor for the 18mm ones would give you more flexibility on motor choice (and more of a chance to loose it, or get a little walking in with the bigger 24mm motors). I would also suggest putting a tube connector forward of the engine block if you go with the 24mm set up. I had a little short 24mm min diameter rocket that almost burned through the body tube just forward of the engine block after about 6 launches, although with the longer rocket, that might not be as much of a problem.
