New Year, New Rocket!

[EPflyer]

I started building a new rocket over the Christmas weekend and finished the construction over New Years weekend. The rocket uses a BT-60 body tube about the same length as a Vagabond with a 24mm motor mount. I assembled an Eggtimer Quark to make it dual deploy with an Ebay kit from Apogee Components. The clamp in the photo is holding the switch while the epoxy cures. Open Rocket sims this rocket at 529 meters with an AeroTech E18W. Now to fill, prime and paint.
Rocket, Rock and Roll and a cold one.

Very Nice! Can't go wrong with some rock & roll and a cold one. Be sure to post some pics of your project when it's done. ( a flight video would be cool too )

So is Bud Light used to fill spirals or some other building material??

I use wood filler for spirals. I use the beer to fill the builder! Always in moderation.
