It’s so great to see you again! Your videos have helped my rocketry journey immensely! Thanks to you and a few others, I’m almost done building my L1 cert rocket, a Cherokee H!!!

Pretty cool. I just started exploring and launching model rockets with my son. Trying to find a way to maybe build our own one day. Thanks for the insight.

The Aerobee is one of my favorites. This is great to see you doing one. Sounding rockets are the best to do.I like how you did the Boat Tail. Are you going to do a Part Two?

@JohnLCoker 3 жыл бұрын

I hadn't planned on it. Once the parts are fabricated, it goes together like any kit. Is there something else you think should be covered?

@@JohnLCoker No,you did a great tutorial .I thought maybe if you assemble it you may show the finished rocket. The Aerobee series were a great mile stone in rocket design and research. I have 3 in Mid Power 29mm and 2 in 18mm. It is a cool looking rocket. I hope you get to fly it.

Estes sells various parts for scratch building. Their nose cones: estesrockets.com/product-category/accessories-parts/nose-cones/

Please make a video about how do rounded nose cones (in a cheap way)

@JohnLCoker 3 жыл бұрын

I'm not sure what a "dk rounded" nose cone is, but likely 3D printing is the best option for model rocket parts like this.

Is there a way to make nosecones? If yes, how can I?

@JohnLCoker 5 ай бұрын

3D printing works well. The forces on model rockets typically don't exceed what can be printed easily. PLA can warp due to heat (such as being left in a hot car), but seems to be strong enough to survive flight and landing.
