Description

This was my 1st scratch/bash build. Not sure the difference! Anyhow, 3" blue tube, DD with custom prism fins made my PML and plastic NC.

12/01/2018 update: After inspecting rocket booster after it was found 6 weeks later, pretty severe damage to air frame. One fin broke loose, airframe warped from wayter damage & cracked probably from impact. Anyhow, stripped it down to bare components. Fins all clean & good, MMT reusable, shock cord & motor retainer still firmly attached to MMT. Rail buttons good too. Motor case cleaned right up too & no damage!

Shock cord wasn't attached. No drogue too but because shock cord wasn't attached, a drogue wouldn't have helped because shock cord was still stuffed in booster when found.
