Prop Rocket

Updates are in progress for those who emailed about missing files. Please be patient, as I work on this voluntarily and face slow progress due to my printer's repair and testing of mods aimed at correcting issues and reversing changes made for an unsuccessful museum challenge entry. The toy, crafted with precise 3D printing, offers exceptional aerodynamics and balance in its flight. Look forward to different Prop Rockets soon! For assembly, you'll need 4 self-tapping screws (10-12mm, 2mm dia), a 4cm rubber band, fishing line (0.7-1.2mm dia, ~0.8m length), and optionally, a small metal eyelet for the guide hole. Clean off raft after printing directly on the bed. Follow the pictures to assemble the toy by gluing shaft halves together, smoothing surfaces with a round file or sandpaper, adding grease in the bearing, drilling screw holes if needed, attaching the retaining cover, and winding the rubber band correctly for optimal line retraction. Enjoy playing, but be cautious as it could fly sideways and far away! V2 launcher file is also available with improvements to the knob and hook. Keep an eye out for new Prop Rocket designs at Thingiverse. Be patient while updates are being made.
