Thank you for the sub. I will hopefully get a decent camcorder ready for this may...
What did you fly it on in this video. I would appear it's an Estes motor.

Hi Alex,
I scratched built this Kit. Ordered the nose cone from Semroc BNC-80AO and BT-80 Body 14.25" cut down to 13.5". Bought the engine mount from uncle mikes rocket shack a Cygnus 24mm to BT80 along with a 36" Red Nylon Parachute. Ordered the Decals BT-80 Upscale Der Red Max Decal from excelsiorrocketry. Bought Balsa Fin Material 1/8" from a local Hobby Shot. The plans are at JimZ Plans in PDF format and unscaled at a 150% Traced that to paper and cut the fins out by hand.
