Want to know what everyone would want in their own level 3 rocket? What building techniques would you use? What materials would you choose and why? Would you build a kit instead?
First thing I would do is ask myself this question: "I am getting my level 3 cert because ____________ ."
The answer will help you choose a rocket.

If I lived where I had higher waiver, would have been a 4in with 75mm mount. Far more usable rocket for after the cert.
I have done several searches and found a link from 1993, that did not work. The only other info I find is about an ejection baffle at the coupler. But that is about all it said. Do you have any more info on this, or any links to it? Thanks.No matter what convert the rocket to the Stu Barrett anti-zipper design.

See my report on my L3....attached is a link to it. The anti zipper design is with the coupling....What is Stu's anti zipper design?
I agree. I've got an Excel spreadsheet that I log all of my flights on. So far I've burned 1195 motors...albeit clusters and staging adds to those numbers that started back in 1988. Includes 1/2A's up thru M's. Many scratch builds in there. Most of the kits have been tweaked anyway.If/when I get my L3 it will be a rocket of my design.
Im not a fan of the buy this kit use this glue with this motor now your a rocket expert... When I start the journey for my L3 I want to experiment with different designs different building techniques on a smaller scale 54mm-3"-4" etc working my way up to the final result.
