For anyone interested, see it here.I must admit the thought of giant STOP sign halves as fins (fiberglass of course) does amuse me
The actual color will be Colonial Red, which can be seen in its exactitude in the Radial Flyer photo here. The roll pattern is greatly affected by my OpenRocket skills, and is really just kind of like thinking out loud, so to speak.Is that more of a magenta than a pure red? I like it.
It looks very nice as is, but to my eyes there's something not quite right about the roll pattern. I can't put my finger on it. Maybe needs something else near the nose cone to balance it. If I can come up with anything more specific I'll let you know.
But again, if you built that as shown it would be very nice.
Probably. I was not being meticulous, but see above for the actual plan.Nice! Are the black stripes on the roll pattern wider than the silver stripes? If so, that might be what Neil was seeing.
Maybe not a human body. Mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha!That's a heck of a long nose cone. Can you stash a body in there?
If I don't destroy with the M motor shakedown flight first. Wouldn't that be a hoot?Awesome! The O motor will do it proud.
They're about an inch, details here; https://rocketjunkies.com/product/8-gram-aluminum-charge-wells/What's the diameter of your charge wells? You could JB weld some copper pipe extensions to them if necessary, although 10 psi on your airframe cross section is a lot of force and you could probably get away with smaller charges
Thanks. Like I said, I'll start at 8g to test, and hopefully work down from there.15g of BP is probably too much. The enclosed payload tube of my Frenzy XXL is 8" x 44". I use 5.5g for primary charge and 6.5g for backup charge. Have flown it 3 times so far with no problems.
