I built my Omega Cineroc clone straight from the Omega plans and everything worked out just fine. If you ever do fly a heavy payload with it, be sure to use a long rod and fly on a calm day. It tips off easily, especially if you forget and put a poopy clay D12-0 in there and the nozzle erodes enough to give it vectored thrust.  |
The Omega nose cone is the same nose cone that was used on the original Der Red Max.
I have some still photos taken from my Cineroc, if I can get these posted here I will, they are vintage and very interesting. |
