Summary

The Bug Eye model rocket is reminiscent of the Estes Star Snoop "Goony Bird" rocket from the early 70s. It's a D or E powered rocket with pretty simple construction.

You will need the following to complete this rocket:

• BT-80 (66mm) body tube (I used 157mm of this as that's what I had laying around)
• BT-50 (24mm) body tube. You'll need 95mm as that is the length of an E motor.
• Shock Cord. I used Kevlar line.
• Parachute. I used an 18" nylon chute.

I've provided the OpenRocket (ork) model file so you can make your own simulations.
