Nice job. Great color Blue and decals. I haven't seen a 6 fin rocket since my Mini NCR Katana that I bought years ago.Painted the nosecone of my modified Hi-Flier XL (with 3D printed fins). I just need to tie the chute on and it’s ready to go.

Wow, I like this rocket. It reminds me of the fin design of the LOC Athena rocket that I have . The fin arrangement is different. Is it a 75mm motor? What kind of altitude can you get with this? Very nice work. Also is a photo of my 29mm Arcon rocket ready for paint.And since im in this thread... yesterday i finished (all but paint), my 4” Wildman DarkStar. Now time to clean up my trashed shop!

For some reason, I feel like having a cup of tea now.
I got that handle about 25 years ago from one of my golfing buddies. He commented that I looked like a teapot while I was putting. Of course it stuck. So that's why I spell it with two E's. But, I also like tea.I want to like the fact that "teepot" liked that post.

Thanks. I’m a big fan of rockets with more than 4 fins. My L1 & L2 was a Quicksilver with 6 fins. I also build a Hi-Flier XL with 6 fins and a pentagon-shaped 3D printed rocket with 5.Nice job. Great color Blue and decals. I haven't seen a 6 fin rocket since my Mini NCR Katana that I bought years ago.

Mmm, I love antiques.
Dang it, you beat me to it! but I was going to say,Mmm, I love antiques.
You say how high, I ask how old... or something...
Maybe circa 2007 or thereabouts. Quest also sold them under license:

Tell it/make it jump...Well, the old 'How High' fired up and passed the vacuum test. Now what do I do with it?

Joy in the mailbox. My LiPo batteries and charger arrived in the mail. Time to do some soldering...
Horizon Models WRESAT arrived to challenge my PMC skills. I'll unbox it after doing some more chores.
'Two-up' got a well deserved paint job to go with her stock nose cone. I'll ask the local Fire Brigade Captain for a burn permit next week. I have prototypes to test!

I would say up, but unsure if that's the correct direction if you're starting from down under...Which way?
