Hey folks, long time no see.
On my YouTube channel I posted a video about last summer's endeavors to get a F302 to fly, via with Estes rockets. I did it, and a heck of a lot less money than that X-Wing they launched on YouTube.
Here's the video description:
Last summer, I experimented with rockets a lot. When I built the Puddle Jumper, the luxuriously long one you see on my channel, it was only natural that I try to bring a F302 to life. And for a brief moment I did and I brought my digital camera with me to show it before and after. It was made by one cardboard box that held my dinner the night I started on it.
I kept the model as simple as possible and centered the engine accordingly. It took a couple weeks of trying to find that perfect center of gravity on the model, since I was working OT all the time last summer.
The specs and results are in the credits. I hope you enjoy it.

I had a lot of fun doing this. She's been launched a grand total of 10 times.
