Well....I need a evaluation of a "typical" Oddroc.
As I was disposing of the empty spool of line from making my 700 # kevlar harnesses. I noticed the length is about the length of an 18mm motor AND the bore is just slight larger than an 18mm motor tube. A few minutes later I had done this... add CRs, an engine block, and an Estes 18mm motor retainer. There was even an 1/8" hole on one end that worked for the launch rod, all I did was add one on the opposite end.
So...to those of you who have flown spools;
1) What do you think? Flyable, maybe, don't.
2) What motors are better for spools? High thrust, or mid thrust, or low thrust. (B6, B4, C18, C12, C6, D20, D16...minimum delay, and/or remove ejection charges from Q-Jets. All available.)
Other Thoughts?
