I had thought about doing a side eject drogue chute and then blowing the nose at 800ft for the main but this thing is limited for space. This will be flown with motor eject and a Jolly Logic chute release. I am building this one to do some testing before I start a project on a much larger one. Hint 24" DiaWhat would be really cool would be if you could get it to somehow come down on its belly, then pop the chute and have it land upright. Maybe if you had the ejection charge shift some internal weight...

I hate clear fins, they look cheap to me. I will paint the extra fins flat black so they kind of blend in. I am more worried about it flying correct than true looks. This is just a test vessel for a larger project.Looks really good. Did you consider making the "extra" fins clear?
Thanks. Slimline retainers.Looking great. What are you dong for motor retention.??
I have not tried ordering any yet, but I normally order right from giant leap.Is Giant Leap the only place you can get Slimline retainers now? Seems odd that Wildman doesn't have 'em.....
Thank you. That is epoxy and phenolic microballoons. The microballoons are added to thicken the epoxy so it does not run..Great Build Thread, what glue did you use thats brown?
