I should clarify that I don't think it will be dangerous -- might be cool to do on porpoise.I'll take a look at making the head a bit "thinner"....

I'll take a look at making the head a bit "thinner".... and maybe some "eye pods" on the ends..
Something fishy about that D12 flight... 207 ft vs. over 1000 for an E?
Did you set the front fin to "rounded"? It produces the same 3D render but my guess would yield a significantly higher flight. If you already did that, then ignore.

Low flight? Not surprising. 1/5 the altitude of a E15? Fishy.
Let’s take @Daddyisabar ‘s tractor idea and step it up a notch.
Tractor motors, eject at Apogee, turn your eye pods into airfoils, bump up the rear side fins a bit.
Poof! You have a boost glider! I bet this isn’t a design @burkefj has mastered yet!

Come on, if you can glide a Klingon Battle Cruise, this ought to be a cinch!I've done an RC flying V-2 but not a shark that's for sure
here's a link to a Catfish Rocket (which if I read it correctly never flew, although it looked fryable.....I mean flyable)

Current rocket looks cool.
Any flight reports on your X-Wing and Lifting Rocket? I might have missed the posts.
Who is a good vendor to buy AeroTek single use motors from? Probably just a couple F44W-8's?
Your thoughts on methods of increasing fin strength?
