rocket build

[Infamous]

Heres one Im building. I have a ways to go yet. More canards, tubes around base, maybe more flat fins or a tube fin. 18mmt . BT 55 to 50 to 20 clear pay load. 1/4 and 1/8 lugs on bottom

24mm with 2x 13s? Interesting!

How high on your planned motors?

sorry I didn't size it. see edited post above.

you might be able to fit MMX engines in those 1/4" side lugs

two transitions and a clear payload section makes a pretty cool combination so far!

Its a kit bash with some added extra . Care to guess the kit?

 

[mbeels]

Nice, I like the extra details you've added.

 

[Bat-mite]

That will be unique!

Decided to go with a little bigger canards. Adding reactor tube bundles to sides.using half bits and CES. Ill put 1/8 lugs between crs.

More work on tube bundles

 

[Infamous]

I put the 2 frames for the tubes on. Not a lot to see, but I hear people like lots of pictures.lol..Also bought some bamboo skewers for 97 cents . I was looking at long tooth picks at first and then found the skewers for a third of the price of the picks. Thinking of using some on the upper section . The painting could prove to be interesting.

With or without CRs W/the little washers? I think with.

I'm fascinated by your design process, since you give the impression that you're kind of making it up as you go along. Is this typical of your builds? Certainly can't argue with the results... My approach is so opposite to this it's almost comical.

I really like the extensions on the back of the fins. Might steal that one day.
