While joking with my son that I need to stop buying Pringles because I keep making rockets out of the tubes, he held up a package of mini M&Ms we'd just bought for my grandson and said "I bet you'd make a rocket out of this!"
So I did. And here it is.
Build instructions:
There are two different versions of the fin unit.
1) Uses a BT-5 (13mm) motor tube. You'll need a motor block if you build that one. It's slightly lighter than the all plastic one, but more hassle. It works though. I built one this way. I believe the weight difference is negligible but this one may hold up better long term than the all plastic one.
2) An all plastic one sized for Estes 13mm motors. Held up fine for the one launch I've done so far, time will tell if it lasts for long.
Build Notes:
* I use 250lb kevlar string as a shock cord. It's fire proof...enough.
* I also use a small square of nomex cloth instead of wadding. These are both visible in the photo.
* Use a streamer for re
