  • I'd like to know if the stick type epoxy clay will perform just as well.

  • @bigone5500 You'll have to try it and see. I know this works great, but I haven't tried everything possible.

  • what rocket is that?

  • @izaya35 The rocket is a scratch-build project I'm just doing for fun. It is based on a 5.5" diameter Blue-Tube, with a LOC nose cone on top. There will be an electronics bay that will house a new GPS based dual-deployment system that a friend of mine is building. Check back on my channel for further updates.
