Classic...Love this Addon, Thanks. This is the type of Rocket I grew up reading about. If it was on the cover I read it. A few years ago I challenged my 23 yr. son to a model rocket building contest. Who's would go the highest. He used a computer program for model rocket building. He tested MANY different configurations, then built his. I based mine on what I thought of as the Classic Sci-Fi Rocket from the 50's. Just a rough drawing based on my memories.
With an Estes C engine, mine flew about 800 feet straight up. His flew maybe 60-70 feet then wobbled and self destructed... Dad won...Proving that computer models aren't always best.
There's video of both flights on my youtube page.
