Ha! Funny you should mention an upscale. I just did a 3" upscale in Open Rocket a little while ago.
That's awesome!!!

Estes X-Ray with a 2" grasshopper for a "Bug-A-Naught" in Texas in the summer of 1964. Both grasshopper and rocket survived the flight to fly again.
Completely home made. Body tube made of rolled up wallpaper. Three fins were made from cardboard cereal box. Nose cone was carved from a chunk of wood chopped from the apple tree. Parachute was my mother's handkerchief and fishing line. This was in 1963. Perfect launch and recovery.
Boy, I would have loved to see that! What motor did you fly it with?
It was an "A". Don't remember the impulse. I wasn't ready for "High Power" (B-engines lol) yet.
