Hey all..
So we've had a lot of people certing up as of late. They've got their Level-1
(H-I motors) and Level-2 certs (J-L).. and some are trying (or at least
starting to think about) their Level-3 now (M-O motors).
I'm thinking my next big rocket will probably be a 5" (dia) airframe, probably
all fiberglass or bluetube. Maybe scratch built (with a nice big ebay for lots
of electronics and HAM radio gear).. maybe a kit. I like the flexibility of a
multi-motor cluster, like what Giovanni had on his black momba:

or maybe a just a more traditional single 75mm:
