Outstanding. I like it.
That's a very ceaative approach, and I'd say good results for a first try.I tried to make the handle part look knurled. I wrapped a metal screen around it and put the top color on. Came out so so.
It has very good reviews . It has a valve and pin mechanism at ejection that unfolds the wings and glides back. About 300 ft you should get.
That should be a good show on an F23 FJ. I have a couple of those Im itching to launch in my Aerotech Arcas. What is your rockets weight?
My wife said the same thing. But then she thinks that about a few of my rockets.That's a very ceaative approach, and I'd say good results for a first try.
I'm afraid you're going to get a lot of jokes because it looks as much or more like a sex toy that starts with 'd' and ends with 'o' as it does like a medical device.
Whoa! Two totally different designs. They will bring attention to the field for sure. Nice going.I finished the oddroc and the Alien Probe. I used a USPS triangular box for the oddroc. It is 37" long, weighs 28 ounces with a chute and has a 29mm x 8" mmt. The nose cone I made out of a balsa sheet. There is a 2.2" BT down the center of the box. The Alien Probe which is supposed to look like a medical device is 74" long, weighs 38 ounces with chute and has a 38mm x 15" mmt. I tried to make the handle part look knurled. I wrapped a metal screen around it and put the top color on. Came out so so. Some of the screen lifted away from the tube so there isn't a continuous pattern. The nose cone I modified from a 3" balsa cone. It's a 2.6" BT into a 1.63 BT. It also has Lexan fins.
Ready to fly! I know, it's nekkid, but she's gonna earn the paint and stickershock vinyl! Shake down on a G53 then the H165 for my cert. Motor deploy. FS Mini and a Marco Polo for the walk! Can't wait!Working on a LOC 3" Athena for my L1 cert flight in a few weeks. Sending her up on a H165R. First set of fillets done!

That looks like...
Exchangible motor mounts?Finished glue filleting the 38mm and 54mm motor mounts and forward fincan CR for my 7.5" Door Knob Level Two build.

Went out and flew after several months, ranged from A's to a G. First flight of the Mach 1 Star Cruiser, and 29mm Big Daddy. Only loss was an expected Hi-Flier. Also had my first lawn dart on an Loc Viper III. Heard the ejection charge but failed to push the nosecone out. View attachment 454663
Well, it IS a Viper.This really looks like a snake skin on the desert floor
Not the look I was originally going for but turned out quite fitting. Luckily the mount and nose cone are still sound. Just a bit of tube and the FrankenViper is born.This really looks like a snake skin on the desert floor
