Hi Everyone!
Here is the current look of my scratch built 6" Phoenix made from 6.25" O.D Sonotube with 2 layers of FG on it. I noticed last year the white paint on the nosecone didn't match the airframe color. I am pretty sure I used the same brand and color for both back then. I didn't put decals on it originally either. So I decided this year to repaint and finally get some decals on it. Ordered the decal set a while back from Mark at Stickershock. Had a few issues with them but Mark provided excellent customer service and remade a few at no charge. Thanks Mark! Repainted it in May, put the decals on in July, and finally took some pics today. The nosecone is solid pine so the rocket weighs 17lbs without motor. It's maiden was in Sept 2004 on a AT J570 to about 1500 feet. It has not been flown since. I have a K550W reload for it ... just need a place to fly it!
