    18mm Carbon Fiber screamer- The Crow 18

    It was a D24. Telemini worked perfect in every way, as always! I love flying it.

    18mm Carbon Fiber screamer- The Crow 18

    Well it flew today. 2927 ft, 604 MPH and 26 g's. Not quite as high as I was hoping for but still good. It turned a little out of the tower, so I probably lost a little there. Recovered it about a 1/4-3/8 mile away. I was hoping the Kevlar cord being so bunched up would take the place of wadding...

    18mm Carbon Fiber screamer- The Crow 18

    Today I got the tower for this rocket built. I also painted the nosecone neon orange. I had wanted to do a little orange on the fins to and then lay a nice clear coat over the whole thing but I just ran out of time. After tomorrow I will focus on getting a nice paint job on it. It will fly...

    I540 to Mach 2 - 38mm Flying Case

    I will be testing a CTI 38mm cone to over mach 2 next Saturday, isn't mach 3 but it will give me an idea of what they can handle. I will be posting a thread after the flight.

    18mm Carbon Fiber screamer- The Crow 18

    Here is the harness and anchor/thrust ring before epoxying it inside the airframe. I Got that done tonight and also worked on getting the electronics to fit. Spent 3 hours getting everything to fit in the payload. It still just barely fits and takes a little work to get it all the way in. Once...

    And yes, I need to find an old 18mm F. Either that or hope CTI comes out with a Pro18 line... That would be awesome!

    18mm Carbon Fiber screamer- The Crow 18

    That's nuts that he found it! I guess with a long enough streamer it shouldn't be too hard to spot if you scan the area. Our fields usually aren't very friendly to small rockets with alfalfa, deep furrows, corn or tall weeds trackers are pretty necessary with small rockets going out of sight...

    18mm Carbon Fiber screamer- The Crow 18

    Got a couple packages in the mail, chute from eRockets and Kevlar cord from 3 Dogs, very fast shipping from both. Tomorrow after work I'll epoxy the cord to my anchor and then epoxy that in the booster. I now have everything. You might notice I didn't do any primering... I was too busy this...

    Redshift- 38mm Minimum Diameter Rocket

    In that case you should be using 3. 2 pins would create an axis for a pivot. One pin does work fine, I've used it multiple time on a 54mm min dia. I like to have a very nice fit at the joint which will eliminate the issue. This can be accomplished by smearing superglue evenly around the shoulder...

    Any harm in ironing a Nomex chute protector?

    As long as there is some distance between where the nomex is connected to the cord and where the parachute is connected even being wrinkled it should easily pull out an inflate just fine.

    18mm Carbon Fiber screamer- The Crow 18

    Last night I made a bulkplate for the coupler and drilled a hole for the e match to run through and another where the Kevlar cord will run through. Then I tacked it in place with 5 min and ran a tiny fillet with JB weld. I also trimmed the coupler to length and will use the rem as a shock cord...
