Public Missiles PML Flying Model Rocket Kit 2.2" Bull Puppy
Based on the U.S. Air Force's Bull Pup missile, the Bull Puppy 2.2 is a great starter kit with excellent styling and performance. This puppy is perfect for pre-cert F and G flights and smaller fields. Comes complete with military-style decals and a pre-slotted plastic boat-tail. The BULLPUPPY 2.1 is a small but mean-looking kit for Class 1 & Level 1 flights. This rocket stands 28" tall, is 2.2" diameter and has a 4 main and 4 canard fin design. This rocket comes standard with a 29mm motor mount and can fly on F thru I motors. At ~20 oz., the 24" parachute is sized right for the stock kit to make a safe landing under most field conditions. The stock airframe is ideal for flights up to approx. 0.85 Mach.

Quantum Airframes:
The Quantum Tube (QT), is made from a special blended polymer that is extremely durable and easy to use. You will find this new material easy to work with and very forgiving. Most hobby type epoxies and paints will readily adhere to this material as well. The Quantum Tube can be squeezed, dropped, or even thrown and will not suffer any damage as can sometimes occur to cardboard or phenolic tube. The Quantum Tubes are molded in medium gray and have a glass smooth finish. The Quantum Tube does have one thing missing, the spiral groove! You will appreciate the fact that you no longer have to fill and sand the airframes to achieve the perfect finish.
