I guess I should have said that I would assemble a kit that we acquire. As far as a scratch build it would depend on what parameters you want.
Gotcha I read that wrong then. I can easily assemble the kit here.
I have decided to go with the Spektor. Once I have it here I will build a more accurate sim and see what it will do; but it looks like it will fly on a some C motors up through Es. I will probably shorten the airframe and modify the fins. That will lighten it up a little and make it easier to ship. Those fins are pretty big. With that nose cone one of my sims was looking like a Der Red Max. While I have nothing against that rocket, I don't want folks immediately thinking that is what we are flying.
I can cut 8" off, leaving a 10" airframe, and use the cut off section as four tube fins or six ring fins. Those large fins also present lots of options to what it can be cut down to.

You are before me in line for the TRF Traveler, with only one person between us. I suppose you could toss it in the box before you send it out but we are looking at at least two weeks before it will make it to me. If we want to get this rolling it may be better if you send it on out... Unless we cut in line...
A friend of mine gave me an STL for a case to fit the Flight Sketch mini and I am printing it out now. It will ride along as a prototype as he may be offering them up for sale at some point. So if yaw like it and want one, let me know.
