Upscale SkyBender

Posted Sun, 08/22/2010 - 14:08 by Sunward

Courtesy of Dale Marshall, today I present his upscale SkyBender.

According to Dale:

It launched great under three D12 engines but failed under three C11s (parachute didn't deploy)..... The plans are very similar to the Skybender. ...Iit was fun to build and very fun to fly.

I have attached his rocksim file. (right click to download)

New shock Cord

Posted Tue, 08/10/2010 - 13:03 by Sunward

New shock cord now available. This is 3/8 inch wide material. Available in a package of 4, each about 6' /72" long.

Choose from different strengths. Sunward kits generally use the 1/4" material in most kits. The 1/8 material is for smaller light weight rockets. The 3/8 for larger rockets such as G powered kits.

The shock cord length should be about twice the length of the body tube of the rocket.
