Flight Log - 2018-01-30 - Graeme Cooke's Patriot M104

Wanted t' build a nice rocket that would be reliable, yet scale.

I didn't wood fill anything, arrr, or prime.  Just light coats with sandin' in between, and a few clear coats on top.  I left t' yellow tube unpainted, me hearties, as t' instructions suggest.  With t' clear coat on top it ends up lookin' like t' phenolic section o' t' real rocket.  I highly recommend this.
