I have been an avid astronomer since I was a kid. Current scope is an 8" Meade SCT LX200GPS Digital setting circles, motorized focus, GPS Great views, but quite a heavy scope Both the telescope and the field tripod together weigh around 73 lbs. I have included some pics of it sitting on my shop...

Looking to build my first minimum diameter rocket. Currently thinking of the Mad Cow 2.2 Go Devil. It of course takes a 54mm motor. I was planning on epoxying a 54mm minimum retainer and then utilizing Aero Pack extenders for different 54mm case lengths. I would also like to use 38mm motors in...

Andy, The Rogue turned out really nice, would have liked to see it fly on the two day launch. I just just finished a 4" fiberglass Madcow Super DX3 that I was going to maiden at that launch. I was going to take my written L2 test that weekend too. Hope to see you at the next launch, whenever...

Finally finished my latest build, Madcow Super DX3 Fiberglass. 2 months plus project. Set up for single deployment. Height: 69" Width: 12" Weight: 128 oz dry 4" Air Frame Set up for either 54 or 38mm motors, I lengthened the motor tube to handle longer motors. Also added an extra centering ring...

Hi, Just started laying out my fiberglass 4" DX3 for drill holes (launch lugs, vent holes) Where is the proper location for the vent holes in the payload bay? I know to stay away from other objects to facilitate clean airflow, but there seems to be several schools of thought on the placement...

Jim, Wow! Thanks for this link. It will provide a wealth of info for my FG build. Best Regards, Brian

Jim, Thanks for the input. As this is my first fiberglass build I am just a little concerned about the top CR on this kit. It is only 1/16" thick and only 13/16" between inner and outer circumferences. It is just so much thinner the the wooden centering rings I am used to. I guess I am probably...

Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it. What you are saying makes good building sense. I really enjoyed your Youtube Drago build. I have watched each episode 2X. The Drago will probably be my next rocket after the DX3 gets built. I am actually flying today in Plant City Florida with my...

Hello, Just ordered a Madcow Super DX3 Fiberglass kit. In this build, I prefer not to drill into the top CR to attach a shock cord eyebolt for recovery. Seems like drilling a 1/4" TO 5/16" hole in the top fiberglass CR will dramatically weaken it. And I'm not too fond of the method of epoxying...

Congratulations, Good flight, came off the rail straight as an arrow. That orange really makes the rocket easier to find. Believe me, I know from experience. LOL Keep up the good work!

I laughed so hard when I saw the paint job on your EZI-65 I looks very familiar to me. LOL Rustoleum Orange and Gloss Black rattle cans I guess great minds think alike Here's mine:

I would like to thank everybody on their input on the 4" Black Fly. I now know how to proceed regarding nose weight. The feedback on this forum is great. Thanks again!

Funny as heck! Some really good ones here. The best was PEBMAP, it had me laughing so hard.

gfunk, I can't thank you enough for the sim file for the Black Fly. Now I know how to proceed. Thanks even more for the flight video, I've watched it 3 times. That has to be one of the best flights I have ever seen. Gives me some incentive. LOL Best Regards, Brian
