Rocket - 3D Printable & Fully Functional

Posted in response to community requests on Reddit and Instagram. Our first 3D printed rocket flew three times but our home-made parachute failed to open on all flights due to poor design. It works with Estes C engines and we will come back to add weight and size details in the next couple of days. Will also upload clip to YouTube and hopefully Instructables. https://www.youtube.com/c/AndysTechGarage Building instructions are super simple; 1 - Print everything but the engine compartment in vase mode 2 - Glue rings inside body parts 3 - Make or reuse parachute 4 - Smooth engine compartment if needed 5 - Blast off and hopefully you will enjoy this as much as we did Reprinting the rocket now for a new flight this weekend. Make sure to test and balance the rocket. You may want to add some weight to the nose cone for best results. Looking forward to seeing your future builds! Ad Astra!!!

May need to sand the engine compartment a bit to allow smooth insertion and removal.
