My featured project is my Big Nuke 3E, named "Family Affair", as without the support of my family, this project would not have been possible.
This project is my Level 3 certification project. The rocket is 5.5" in diameter and is 8 feet tall. It weighs 15 pounds empty and will weigh approximately 26 pounds fully loaded with either an M1297W or M1500G. I am expecting approximately 8000-8500 feet from this flight.

Looking forward to a loud, smokey, showy thunderous rocket that will be a “toupe- remover’ for anyone standing on the flight line.

I built an extended Nike Smoke (Polecat Aerospace – 10-inch) – added a 4-ft airframe so it is now just over 16-ft tall. It will weigh in at under 110-lbs fully loaded. Everything was fiber glassed and it is built like a rock just like my 20-ft DINOSAURS ROCK-et EXTREME (I am bringing this rocket to display at NERRF only).
Here are some of the details:
16-ft Nike Smoke
Weight Loaded: under 110-lbs
Planned Motor: Cesaroni M3100 White Thunder (6118 NS)
Dual Deploy – 8-ft drogue at apogee, 20 or 24-ft main at 1000 ft., backup at 800 ft.; 14-ft chute for the Nose Cone.
RockSim Altitude shows just under 3000-ft which is exactly what I like as you can see everything.
Two Perfect Flight Altimeters
