Cool rocket. I just built the Apogee TTV. It is also a medium powered rocket that has an avionics bay. But it is for timed staging. Katana Jr may be my next rocket. Thanks for the detailed assembly videos.
You’re welcome.
Just FYI, the raised rings on the nosecone aren't a result of the molding process but are actually marks for cutting the nisecone for two boattail sizes. It's a feature used by the Apogee Lexjet.
One question? What size is the Kevlar shock cord? I keep buying reels of kevlar but they are too thin... thank you
The shock cords are 8 feet long each, and appear to be about 300 pound test.

Question, Couldn't you use a fishing swivel with the clasp on nose cone off a short piece of kevlar sc ( shock chord) ?
@@terryperrott9913 probably. I use swivels in lots of places.
