Hello all!
I am going to be documenting my L3 build here. I have already started and had a decent portion done but I decided I would still do a build log so people can learn from what I did and I can learn from others!
This build is rather unique, it is made of fiberglassed 12 inch sonotube concrete forms. I am using two 4 ft tubes for the overall length of the body tube as well as a 3ft tall homemade nosecone.
I plan on using a "parachute cannon" design for my main 12 ft parachute which will be located inside my nosecone.
The two motors that I tentatively plan on using are a CTI M3100 or the CTI M1300. The total weight of the rocket should be around 50lbs with a predicted altitude of around 4,000 ft.
I will gladly answer any questions!
(I will get some pictures up soon, and can get specific photos upon request)
