This is one of those rockets that really pulls dual duty, in that it can be flown both low power and mid power. Comes stock with a 24mm motor mount. Flying low power D12's and mid power E9's. We will be trying a mid power F21 in ours within the next launch or two.
The Executioner pictured above actually ended up here...
As you can see tall trees are the biggest enemy of model rockets. That rocket spent nearly 4 wks in the top of that tree before finally coming down. Many rain storms later and it was all but trashed. We were able to salvage the nosecone and fins and used them to build the "Pieces and Parts" rocket shown in the scratch built section.
Sometimes a rocket will inspire a rocketeer to do something different with the design.
Below is a picture of Clay Kremer's upscaled Executioner. If you're familiar with rocketry and motors used in the hobby you'll understand what an upscale this is as it flies powered by an M3000 motor and then airstarts 6 38mm motors. We watched this rocket fly on 3-6-04 and it was a great flight.
To the bottom left of the big rocket is our Estes Executioner shown for scale.
Built 4-1-02 and 4-25-02
Diameter is 2.6", Length is 38.5" and Weight is 8.1 oz. Parachute recovery.
Executioner lifting of on an AT F21 White Lightning 3/19/05 with the THOR group in Nebraska. Flight went great but.........
The choice to go with a slightly larger parachute wasn't a good one, it caught a thermal on the way down and drifted a long ways, here is where we found it. So now that's two Executioners gone after getting hung up during recovery.
