Hey all, this is my first post since I couldn't find anything recent / in my price range while looking around.
I am in going into college next year (for Aerospace Engineering ) so I need to keep the cost down.
I want to build the rocket from scratch so I can use it for resumes, so I just wanted tips on where to find the materials.
Up until now, I've used cardboard tubes on my rockets and poster board for fins. I want to make my rocket so it can be used for both level 1 and 2 certifications.
Where do you all suggest I get affordable parts that can achieve this? Affordable would be like no more than $150 for the whole build, but hopefully cheaper. I hope that is not impossible. Also, what sources do you recommend for learning to construct higher power rockets? I understand most of it from LPR stuff, but what else is there to know moving up?
Thanks!!
