<div dir="ltr">The Wildman Rocketry Blackhawk 29 is a pretty sweet minimum diameter, practically indestructible carbon fiber rocket under $100.

Especially with a big launch coming up in October, and people preparing to place motor orders (give a shout out here if anyone needs to get in on our group order to safe a ton of money).</p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">NOTE: This is a 29mm motor mount rocket, meaning this is a solid G performer but it can also function well to get you your L1 cert. However, a very popular mod is to swap out the motor mount and centering rings with 38mm components to make this rocket a real screamer.. able to take H and some I motors without further modifications. (contact someone who's done this before if you never have. There are some trade offs and considerations)</p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">This one is great because it is a 38mm ready to go, plus it's over 5" in diameter which means it has slow, dramatic liftoffs that won't punch a hole in the stratosphere (i.e. you'll likely get it back and get your certification with ease ;)</p>
