This a flying model of retro looking spaceship - designed for F thru small H motors. It is completely 3D printed except for recovery and avionics. It is based on a delightful design of a retro spacer with 24mm motor mount - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4262096 I made the following substantial changes: + integrated fins directly to the body for greater stability + integrated 1010 rail button mounts with standoffs to clear the nosecone + lengthened the body for improved stability with larger motors + increased motor mount size to 29mm + an integrated screw-on motor retainer eliminating a third party accessory + an integrate payload bay with screw-on access + optional screw on avionics mount for nosecone primarily designed to mount an Adafruit Feather to control a small red nose-mounted laser and NeoPixel strings to use this rocket as a night rocket This rocket, printed in Dremel Eco-ABS and PETG (for the translucent night rocket nose cone) weights about 490g with a CG 24.3cm from the nosecone w/o recovery or nosecone avionics.
