7.5" Smokin' Rockets Mega Goblin

This is the 7.5" Mega Goblin from Smokin' Rockets. It has a single, 48" long, fiberglassed PML body tube. The nose cone is also from PML, and the fins are made from 3/8" 7-ply plywood. I'm using a ROCKETMAN R18C parachute with deployment bag. For electronics I am using a blacksky AltAcc and a Missile Works RRC2 altimeters.

Dia: 7.5"; Length: 6'; Wt.: 25.5 lbs. (without motor); Motor (1): 98mm
Status: Damaged, undergoing repairs.
