A fun and interesting rocket modelled after an older style water tower made to fly of 24mm motors (Estes D or E, for example). It launches off a 1/4" launch rod. You will need spacers for shorter D type motors
To build this rocket you will need the following:
* A 20oz Hot Cocoa can. I got mine as a generic brand from Cub Foods but they're identical to the 20oz Swiss Miss cans.
* BT-80 (66mm) body tube, about 170mm of it. You'll be cutting this to length during assembly.
* BT-50 (24mm) body tube for the motor mount. 95mm of this will accommodate an Estes E motor.
* Shock cord. I used Kevlar line.
* An 18 or 24" parachute. I think I used a 24". But mine fell nose first from the sky on the maiden launch and survived, so it's pretty tough for a rocket.
* 4 24" long pieces of 1/4" dowel for the legs.
* And of course the 3D printed parts included in this design. I recommend using Polymaker LW-PLA (pre-foamed so it prints like regular PLA) to save some weight, but this shou
