And a J510 after that?Next up, the Aerotech J500
This past Friday I loaded up my LOC Caliber ISP with a J350 and pushed the button.

She is 100% cardboard and plywood held together with epoxy. No glass, no carbon, nothing outside the regular kit.

Really cool picture and flight. That flame is beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
My Calober came with a 54 mm mount. Didn't yours? The largest motor my Caliber has flown on is a 3 grain 54 Rx (like J415) to 7500 feet. Also, stock construction except added electronic dual deploy. I don't have any video of this flight. I lost it on a K160Here are some photos and video I took of Tony's flight at FAR:

Needs stronger airframe above the motor with internal support for the nosecone/avionics.
Possible tip shredding on the fins which may have added to the stress from vibration and angle-of-attack.
Do it again!
I like how you used just no fiberglass or carbon on this kit. that is an awesome launch pic!

What was your weight?
The I1299 would be a fun flight for sure. Really enjoy the warp 9 motors.
interestingly the top speed on the I1299 is less than the J350. The g load of I is huge at almost 60g where the J350 only pulls 29.
like the idea and will probably buy one and the plugged forward closure at some point soon.
I've been flying I1299N with just a standard closure and the delay elements w/o any BP. No problems so far.
