[Hospital_Rocket]

Look at it this way, next time you don't have to break up a pack of D-12's

One of the guys I fly with routinely mixes D-12's and E-9s on his LOC Viper 4

Flies like a charm

Remaking of it. I got rid of the clear fins and I as ya can see I used a thin layer of J/B weld to get a good tack on the fins. Its still real light and It will be comin with me to NARCON

 

[Bowhunter]

and another pic

 

[Bowhunter]

and another reason I used j/b weld is because I ran out of epoxy and I wanted it together

 

[Bowhunter]

well i started painting the fins and I had a painting episode well it had more black paint on it than what i wanted so i tried to fix it then it looked crappy so then I went for the nose cone

 

[Bowhunter]

oh ya pic's I forgot

 

[rstaff3]

Looking good!

 

[Bowhunter]

What do ya's think Should I bring it to Bong this weekend? Ill also be bringing my AMRAAM2 and CRAMRAAM

 

[Bowhunter]

All that black makes it look like a Big Daddy.
Nice.

Tim

 

[Bowhunter]

Well its not a scaled Big Daddy but its close I guess dose it count Tim?

 

[slim_t]

It works for me.
I'm not picky when it comes to almost scale.

Looks really good Bowhunter but why did you switch to visible fins? I really love my 5 D12 crayon with clear Lexan fins. I used a fin pattern that allows the model to land before the fins hit (usually). To date i've logged a ton of flights with only one fin damaged on a very windy day. Or are you just looking for more surface area for paint

 

[Bowhunter]

I just thought Id give it a new look

 

[Bowhunter]

Well It flew today and once yesterday at our clubs 2-day launch and it was cool all 5 motors lit both times and heres a pic of it

 

[Bowhunter]

the flames and the smoke was awesome
