My rocket is 6 feet tall and 2 inch diameter. T' coupler be t' same type o' tube as t' body tube and is located in t' middle. It is black with yellow/black Monokote. T' nose cone is a piece o' balsa that I made on a drill press. Blimey! Blimey! It has a 29 mm mount and be first flown on a F-22. Ahoy! Blimey! It has 4 9 inch long 1.5 inch diameter tubes that were cut from Estes Mean Machine Body Tubes and were painted yellow.It gives t' rocket a nice Sci-Fi look. Arrr! Blimey! T' body tubes were fiberglassed, sanded, ya bilge rat, and painted.
