John Coker Scratch Build Video

John Coker put together a great scratch building video.
To go to his website and newest video: CLICK HERE
"In this video, I show the process of designing a sport-scale model of a Standard Aerobee and making the parts needed to build it."


Shown above is the Scale Spreadsheet Page. Plug in the original prototype dimensions and the body size you want to use in your build. The spreadsheet gives you the scale ratio information for your model.

John certainly knows how to build.
In some YouTube rocketry videos, you find mistakes and questionable methods.
John's videos are well produced with correct information.

    1. Hi Metal -
      I agree! His shop is WAY too organized. All I've got is a kitchen table, sanding block and a dull X-Acto knife.
