reiningecho90 on reddit came up with a rather nice model rocket design. but heavy. I decided to help out and show how it can be made very light (these 2 parts should mass around 82 grams total)
Test print confirmed. 24mm motor tube fits perfectly DO NOT scale the parts in the slicer. this model uses a little "trick" in the design stage to allow complex multi surface models but still print in Vase/Spiralize mode. if you scale the model you will "break" the trick (requires exact spacing surface to surface which changes if you scale it)
glue in your 24mm MMT add your desired shock cords and goto town. check stability of course plenty of space in the nose to add more if you need it. I am also going to make an 18mm version as I think this will be fantastic on B and C motors.
