I am looking at a 4” Black Brandt build and am trying to choose between the Composite Warehouse and the Madcow Rocketry versions. The specs look like the Composite Warehouse version is significantly heavier. Anyone have any thoughts on these two kits based on your experience?

Hi, I am building a space in a fiberglass Nike Smoke nosecone. I am placing a BRB 70cm GPS in it and I need that to add weight for stability. Any suggestions, for weighted material to epoxy into the cone? Part of that weighted material may surround part of the GPS unit and/or antenna and I do...

I bought a Mariah 38 when they first came out and I set the kit aside. I would like to build it now. How different are the new kits and instructions? Does the new kit contain different materials? Can anyone send me the updated instructions?

It did have a lot on LDRS30 and not much else. Again, it is a late edition. I would be pretty teed off if I was an advertiser with a large display ad for a March 26th launch or selling a 2012 calendar and the February edition was just being sent out the first week of April.

Hi, I am building a Polecat Aerospace 4" V2 kit. It has a 54mm motor tube. The V2 boat tail is fiberglass with a smooth gel coat finish. The fins are plywood. Jack Garibaldi, from What's Up Hobbies, suggested that I consider doing a tip to tip lay up, of fiberglas cloth, of the fins if I plan...

Hello, I am rebuilding a PML Io into a dual-deploy configuration. I am building an avionic bay using a four inch coupler. Obviously, room is tight. Does anyone have experience or pictures from a similar avionics bay project? I am using a G10 sled. Do you have any recommendations for what...

That would be helpful. Thanks.
