Hi all,
I've got it really bad...BEFORE I was even outta bed this morning, I was thinking about what I was going to do with this chunk of LOC 2.56" tube I just got from Hobbylinc...
Looking at my half-finished Tres, (literally! the booster is PAINTED and the top part has no fins, no nuthin!), I got a wonderful idear...
And as you can guess by the title of this thread, I said to myself, "Why the heck not...go fer it!"
Basing the scale factor around the MMT size, it will be 1.61x scale. The booster will be about 29" long, based around the LOC 2.56" tube, and the sustainer will be based around LOC 2.14" tubing, with the tube being, again, 29" long. That will put the finished length of the entire rocket at approximately 70"!!!
WHEEEEE!
