So with my rebuild I want to select the right motor, I want to keep the flight under 4000′.
With my original Blackhawk the CTI H143 simulated to 3600′. So I am thinking around that impulse level, I just want something in maybe a red/blue/green colour.
Any ideas?
I do apologize for the lack of posts recently. Life has taken over as I am planning a wedding and starting a new position at work.
So the lower section of the Blackhawk did remain intact, but the upper section including the nosecone is unusable. So I order some tubing and a nosecone as can be seen in my teaser post.
But one thing that I did not take into account, was the fact that the original Blackhawk tubing has a smaller diameter then the new tubing. I am going to sand down the edge where they meet to hopefully provide a transition. It will be more aesthetic then anything but will cost me a few hours of work.
I am also excited to show you the paint design for this. I worked with Mark from Stickershock and got a checkered mask, I am debating what color to pain the rocket either fluorescent yellow/orange then the lower half will have a faded checker pattern.
Thanks for reading

Well I have been trying to post atleast one thing a day.
Today I am stumped, I cannot think about what is usefull to others. So really all I wanted to talk about today is the AV-Bay design for Type II.
It will hold my last Raven that is not capable of ejection charges or deployments anymore. But might be useable for data.
It will be flying in tandem with a new Raven I have purchased. Now I need to figure out how to fit two Ravens two batteries and two switches in a 38mm minimum diameter body. I have an idea I just need to find the time to dry fit it.
Pictures will be coming shortly, as I am getting ready for my wedding in 2 months. I am spending more time planning and preparing for that. So pictures will happen sometime 🙂
