Completed my L1 yesterday at AirFest! My Zephyr flew great (compared to what little experience I have), and now I'm already planning for the next thing. I'm either going to setup the Zephyr for dual deploy, or build something new w/DD for my L2 in the future. The zephyr as some of you know, has fins that extend beyond the engine mount. Unfortunately when it hit the ground on landing, it looks like it transferred a bit of that energy through the fin and into the body tube which caused a little damage.
I'm looking for feedback on if I should attempt to repair this and move forward with dual deploy and more launches, or if I should just make this the H - I motor rocket and build something else for the L2 stuff... while I could sand and smooth this out, my concern is the integrity of the body tube, and since this is down below the front bulkhead of the motor mount, I can't get behind it to reinforce it.
