Chris Rocket Supply Bomb Pop Build:
Well title says it all, I had it in my hands one week after I clicked buy, so I wasted no time getting the parts washed on the day of. Fortunately all my extra parts that I ordered all got here around the same time so now I can get to the business of building it.
I have to say it's high quality kit, really all you need is a chute, harness and a smattering of hardware. In all its a pretty good price for a 3" 38mm fiberglass rocket.
Here is the parts parts shot, and so far I have glued the harness loop to the motor tube. I plan on running a single separation cable cutter dual deploy, so the AV bay will in the nosecone. There will be some slight modifications to the body tube so I will have a larger bay attached to the nosecone.
I have already cut two inches off the tube and I will be adding it to the nose side. I like to have the extra room for altimeters and tracking electronics, but most of all I like to get my static air ports as far below the final transition of the nosecones as I possibly can.
This bad boy is going to fly the Loki 38 1200 loads so it's going to have to be tough.
