Quick hypothetical question. Do you envision staging this model?


Staging wouldn't be too difficult to accomplish and I will put provisions into the model to accomadate that but honestly...with 3 D12's in the booster are you really going to need another 24mm motor in the sustainer?

We're talking some serious altitude for a scale model but sure...why not?

My Little Joe II model was designed for a 7 motor cluster and one brave soul did fly his on that combonation of a central E9-8 and 6 C6-7's to about 1,500'.

ZOWEE!!!
