When in doubt... build hell-for-stout!
Remember the movie Hooper, where Burt Reynolds jumps a Trans Am over a creek with the aid of rocket mounted in the hatch?
I'm "toying" around with building a model rocket launch vehicle that retrofits onto a 1/25 th scale model car kit.
It's an idea I had a few years ago.... I thought I started a thread on it but can't seem to locate it.
Nonetheless, here's a quick rendering I threw together today.
Rear-deploy recovery would be ideal. May have to make the body tube bigger to hold the laundry.
The idea is to have the rocket / launch vehicle re-usable for various different models, with kind of a bayonet mount that slides into the car / truck / battleship / whatever.
Sure, my lifting rocket could be utilized, but it is huge and dwarfs the model.
Thoughts?
