Model Rocket

Before attempting flight, ensure you fully understand the safety guidelines from http://www.nar.org. Print all three components using PLA with 100% infill for solidity and correct density. The body may not fit on smaller printers; avoid splitting it to maintain strength and balance. Assemble parts, sand joints if needed, and confirm the rocket weighs approximately 53g without motor or parachute. Attach a 15" nylon parachute and secure the motor. Test balance and stability with a swing test before considering powered flight. Consult experienced rocketry club members for advice before using larger motors like D series. ABS may offer better performance, but simulations must be run first.
