This is a flying model of the Honest John missile / rocket used in the Vietnam era. The model fly's on E and F rocket motors or just build as a static display model. The model is comprised of 3D printed parts, two Pringles tubes and a BT-50 sized motor tube. The model is a fantastic flyer despite the video of the maiden flight. The igniter cable was not anchored and it pulled the rocket to the side. She flew to around 1000ft on the F44-6 motor.
