This is a copy o' Larry Brand's "Flat Black" which can be found here on EMRR. I built mine as per t' instructions right down t' t' flat black paint scheme. In t' interest o' better visibility however, I have added two 1" wide rings o' prismatic tape around t' airframe. Avast, me proud beauty! T' Flat Black is a rocket that really shows what can be done with low impulse/long burnin' Estes E9 motors.
