This is my two-stage build launching on a J250 without a motor in the sustainer. The booster is the bottom portion of a 4" Madcow DX3 with a scratch build sustainer based on bluetube and PML fiberglass fins. ISC is scratch based on a PML urethane 4" tailcone.
Flight went well, apogee at about 3k feet, I had an issue with a chute not fully inflating which was due to a tangled shock cord but there was no airframe damage. I need Santa to bring me some more featureful flight controllers before i feel comfortable igniting the sustainer (plan is redundant EasyMegas in the sustainer with tilt-lockout and redundant StratologgerCFs in the booster).
