Finished my Custom Landviper. Casper is inspecting for Hydrogen leaks
If you want to put a longer motor in a Stealth or saucer type rocket, you have to allow the motor to stick out the front.I just finished up two scratch-built 54mm Stealths, one for me and one for a buddy. Thanks to Art Applewhite for providing templates on his “free stuff” website. I built my first 54mm Stealth about a month ago and had a perfect maiden voyage on a J415. I then tried a motor that was too long and unstable, so that one was destroyed. I will limit my new Stealth to 16ish inch motors as Art instructed.

Way cool nice jobI was due to paint a kit-bashed Composite Warehouse Lotus 5, and my daughter had an idea to add a ton of stickers to the cone to make it look like it was full of gumballs, did we succeed?
@Theory cause he loves 2K as much as I do...

SM-64 Navaho.I went down to the Cape to watch the Falcon 9 launch. The spot I was at was just outside the Space Force's base front gate. I was about 4 or 5 miles from the rocket. Artemis was visible on the pad. It dwarfs the Falcon 9. Unfortunately the launch was scrubbed. I'll go down again when the have a date and time. There was a missile on a stick across from the viewing area. Something I couldn't identify. The booster had two motors stacked, one on top of the other. The missile had two air breathing engines side by side. It was about 50' long. The following pictures are Artemis, the VAB and the missile. I shot them with my cell phone so the long range stuff is not good. The shot of the missile when it's the darkest. I lit the missile up with one of my good flashlights.View attachment 537986View attachment 537987View attachment 537988View attachment 537989View attachment 537990View attachment 537991View attachment 537992

I didn't see a sign. How did you see it in a picture. You must have super dupper vision. But thanks.SM-64 Navaho.
