Looking good Bill! Had me looking through some old model rocket news designs and came across the Augie II. Think it will be a nice way to use up some body tubes I got laying around. A 2-stage, one part design. Uses what used to be called CHAD staging (cheap and dirty).

Looks like it needs a booster stage.

It's rear eject. That might complicate things.

Should be ok on a 3xA8-3 cluster in B6-4 field; it's pretty draggy.

It needs a repaint. I fell out of love with the red I used the first time around. So far in 2024, I've driven 10 hours and made 4 flights, so I'm getting a lot of paint and building time. I might get to it this summer.
