woody's Sky Runner V3-1

This rocket is a proof o' concept prototype for a future mid powered rocket. This one is light enough t' fly on C11-0 t' a C6-7 with an 18mm t' 24mm engine adapter in t' second stage. T' second stage is only 65g the booster is 90g for a total weight 155g. T' booster can tumble recover on a single 24mm boosted stage but with t' side boosters used and t' additional weight of the motors it will nay tumble. Avast, me proud beauty! T' solve this you simply use standard upper stage engines in t' side boosters t' provide t' ejection charge for a parachute and streamer recover. This gives great adaptability t' match t' size o' flyin' field used.  I can only guess at altitudes so far. Begad! It has nay flown yet and is under construction.

In t' building of this rocket I probably should have used through t' wall fins (TWF) method for t' fins. T' second and last worry is scorchin' when transitionin' t' second stage.
