For inexperienced rocketeers I wouldn't try to make fiberglass fins just because if you mess up in some way, then your rocket will have disastrous effects. My suggestion would be to go and buy a fiberglass sheet and just cut out your fins from that. The fiberglass sheet is always reliable and is...

Uhhhhh i think im probably just going to upscale the diameter to 4in.....because a 38 ft rocket is a slight too big, and the tube i used on this one was thick wall, so if i make the 4in one completly blue tube it should be fine

Just wanted to show how me and my friends kicked off thanksgiving break...... the rocket is 11 feet tall and ran off a G80-7W and was easily a thousand footer........any thoughts on what motor i should use on a 4 inch up scale https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFXZfEHrB4I&feature=plcp

If I was going to around 17,000 feet would the bee line work?

Hello fellow rocket enthusiasts Lately every-time I fly a rocket I end up having to look for it, or just end up losing it. So for this new rocket me and my friends are building, we decided to put a GPS in it. However, I can't seem to find a reliable Altimeter/GPS. So I was wondering if...

Hi I was just wondering if anybody new a good altimeter for somebody who is just trying to get a basic read of there altitude, however I don't want an altimeter that beeps to show the altitude, a digital read out would be just fine. And its a bonus if it can also support dual deployment:)

To robbdm: its not a kit i actually bought all the parts seperatly and painted with one of my own custom paint jobs To upscaler: right now i don't know where i would be flying it, but it is for my cert 1 so probably one of the NAR regulated fields

just slightly

This is my cert 1 but there is a problem I have no name for it can I get some suggestions:):):):)

hey machet_man i think John deere green and yellow would look really nice on the rocket.....and if you wanted to go above and beyond with the color scheme you could always put that green and yellow in a camo pattern......just a suggestion...and really nice job with the fin fillets :):):):)

What I did was I took a body tube and put wax paper over it and then started to roll the Fiber glass. The problem that im having is that the inside tube won't come out now. Sorry if that was un-clear:y:

But if I pour the acetone down the tube will it melt the wax paper and fiber glass or just the wax paper

This weekend i was rolling fiberglass around a tube and i put wax paper around the tube before i started, to make sure the fiber glass wouldn't stick.......but it ended up getting stuck anyways.......so does anybody know if i pour acetone down the tube will it melt the fiber glass???

what were the steps you took for fiber glassing the nose cone?

because i fiber glassed a body tube and when i put the nose cone on there was a really big lip from the nose cone to the body. so instead of sanding the tube down i was just going to make a fiber glass nose cone so the lip will disappear.

Does anybody know any methods to fiber glass a nose cone??????? Im using a 2.15 inch pinnacle nose cone

For protection from sanding you really don't need much. If you don't want your cloths to get dirty then I suggest wearing something on top, and if your worried about inhaling the dust wearing a respirator will keep you safe. On the other matter of sanding you should always start with low grit...

Hi my name is Jawaad Gadhia and lately my curiosity has been growing on a relativity new rocket body tube called (dyna wind). But since it is so new nobody I know has bought one........ so I was wondering if anybody has one could you tell me how strong is it compared to blue tube or...
