Holy crap time flies (and my L1/L2 rocket doesn't 😆 ) Anyway. This summer has kicked my but. Moving shop, working 2 jobs, etc. etc. etc. I need to wrap this hunk of junk up and get it done!

Will be finishing it up in the next few weeks before Oktoberfest. Photos up shortly!

and now here it is, a year after I was supposed to have this BDR done...I've forgone the paint and will just fly the dang thing at MHM.

need to renew my NAR membership and try for L1, maybe L2.

we'll see.

Well best of luck to you on both L1 and L2. I'll be there.

Jeffy I hope this rocket is done.... I'll be one of your observers if you want for L1 and 2.... Dad is going for L2 also and I have 3 J motors ready and waiting (cases) Im not buying your reloads 🙂 I think Joe Hinton can administer the tests so i hope you are ready for that too! but It will be awesome if you and dad are both L2 so we can all attack a L3 lol

all renewed, rocket is done with a rat style paint job. L1 and L2 is my goal for this weekend. got $$$ to burn!!!

What did you change with the paint from earlier? I was looking for it yesterday and got too busy w/ my L2 stuff.....

good job Jeffy! L2 accomplished, nothing had to go in the junk pile! I wonder what ever happend to your black and orange bird? was that one like dads stars and stripes? abducted by aliens?

I was going to paint it yellow with blue flames, but somewhere along the line I had a bad primer layer and everything on top of it wrinkled. SO...it was white primer with sand through on some yellow with the top painted black...with white flames masked off. Here's a photo.

L1/L2 done. now time to build a dual deploy bird.

BTW...that's NAR L1/L2, might have to join the darkside here soon. we'll see
😈

Yup, definitely saw it, I was eying the flames..... Nice job on the flights. I started out on the dark side because I wanted to do my own motors and TRA seemed more research oriented. But, I thought it was the other way around on the dark side thing 😀

I'm doing a Vertical Assault from GLR, it's going to be Canary yellow with either bird plumage on it to match my wife's Gloster Canary or flames in red paint.

GLR makes some nice kits!

tim launched his 3inch vertical assault on a K motor and that thing was an AWESOME Flight! some guy had a Talon4 i think that was awesome too! jeffy next time let me know if you are going to use Polyester resin to glass..... as everyone says gets brittle and cracks..... but i kinda like the flame/ graffiti styles

I haven't tried to do flames yet, I am looking at doing hand striped flames if I go that way. I have a practice glass with lines laid out for the dagger brush practicing. We'll see......

I'm into rat rods and the rat look. That's why I noticed your paint up there, it did kind of remind me of a rat look.....
