I want to buy, construct, and fly a 5" Madcow Terminator for my L3 with a 75mm motor mount someday. Due to the convergent section at the bottom, I am limited to 75mm. If I am to build this kit, I will build it was designed with the convergent section and fly with a 75mm motor to keep the cert fly low and slow. However, since it's fiberglass, I'd like to have some fun with it after my cert flight and use much larger motors. Considering that the entire motor mount assembly is going to be heavily secured with epoxy, would it be even viable to attempt rocket surgery on it and adapt it for 98mm or even a minimum diameter custom motor that I could make to make for fun. Once I have the 75mm assembly in, am I stuck with that for life?
(My thought was to chop off the convergent section, add some length to the front end, use a hole saw to drill it out to the desired inner diameter, insert the new MMT, and redo everything.) .
Anyone ever done this?
