Rocket Monkey
Built this fun guy with the Estes kit. I bought rings from Apogee to fit a 29mm tube into the body tube. Instead of the stock fins I made my own from two thin balsa slices glued together to make a plywood of sorts with thru-body tabs. I covered them in paper and soaked the edges in thin CA glue for a little extra confidence. Glued and filleted with some basic two part epoxy.With the big jump in aft weight, I suspect she will need a little nose cone lead to push the CG forward. Even with the added weight, I have high expectations for this one. The stock parachute has been replaced by a streamer.
