What Are Fillets?

A fillet (pronounced with the “T” at the end) is a bead of glue that’s applied to the angle where two parts meet. In model rocketry, fillets are most commonly used where the:

Fins attach to the main body tube (Figure 1);

Launch lug attaches to the main body tube (Figure 2); and

Centering rings attach to the motor mount tube (Figure 3).

Figure 1: Figure 2:  

Figure 3: 

Fillets can sometimes be found in other parts of the rockets, especially in more advanced rockets. But for the purpose of this blog post, we’ll stick to the types of fillets most commonly found in lower-powered and beginner rockets.

Why Have Fillets?

There are two main reasons to use fillets. First, it’s to add strength to glue joints. Second, it’s to improve the aerodynamics of the model rocket. Specifically, fillets can reduce the rocket’s interference drag.

How to Do Fillets in Model Rockets

Fillets are actually pretty easy to do. The hard part is making them look perfect. When using fillets with fins, you apply a bead of glue to the angle area where the fin connects to the main body tube (Figure 4). Next, take your finger and drag it across the bead of glue (See Figure 5) to make a nice and smooth glue joint (See Figure 6).

Figure 4:  Figure 5:  

Figure 6: 

When creating fillets where the centering rings connect to the motor mount tube, you follow the same steps. But you don’t have to be as careful to make the joint look good, as you’re using fillets for added strength, not improved aerodynamics or appearance.

After the glue is dry (it will shrink if you used white or wood glue), repeat until the desired fillet size is obtained.

If you’re adding fillets to your fins just to make the joint stronger, one or two fillet layers should be enough. It’s when you want your rocket to look as good as possible and/or fly as high as possible, that you typically need to add multiple fillet layers. But not too much, as the added weight will negate the improved drag characteristics of your rocket.

How to Make Your Launch Lug and Fin Fillets Look Better

Creating nice fillets takes practice, but here are some tips to get better results.

• To get a smoother finish when using white or wood glue, use a damp finger to smooth the fillet.
• Hold the bottle of glue upside down for a few minutes before applying glue to help reduce the chance of air bubbles coming out.
• If you get air bubbles after applying the bead of glue, do your best to pop them with a needle or toothpick as quickly as possible. Hopefully, the glue will self-level after you’ve popped the bubble.
• When smoothing the fillet with your finger, start in the middle of the fillet and drag your finger to the ends of the fillet. This will help prevent too much glue from building up on your fingertip and spreading out, requiring more wiping away of excess glue.

Ways to Make Fillets Easier and Faster

Don’t use too much glue. The amount of glue used in Figure 4 is probably twice as much as necessary, although that much glue was used for that picture so the bead of glue could more readily be seen by the camera. What you didn’t see in Figure 5 was the extra glue that had to be wiped away after a finger was used to smooth the glue bead joint. Using less glue means your fillet will dry faster, too.

Final Notes

This blog post discussed methods and techniques when using wood glue and similar adhesives. Epoxy is another frequently used glue for model rockets, but typically higher-powered ones, where added strength is necessary. We didn’t get into epoxy fillets. However, there will likely be a future blog post discussing advanced fillet methods and tips, which will discuss using epoxy.

Some of you might be wondering about taping the areas around the fins to make a neater fillet. Yes, you can take masking tape or a good-quality modeling tape to create edges that contain the glue. Remove the tape immediately after applying the glue and allow the glue to dry.

After you remove the tape, there will often be a raised edge where the glue touched the tape. This will normally require sanding to smooth out. After it dries, you can paint the rocket with primer and then sand the filleted area smooth. The primer will help fill in the “low” areas and protect the rocket while you sand down the “high” areas of glue.

The Armstrong Museum is such an awesome museum, and I highly advise a visit:  armstrongmuseum.org

 Advisory 8/15/2022

On Saturday July 16th the Wright Stuff Rocketeers and eRockets partnered to manage a launch at the Neil Armstrong Museum in Wapakoneta, Ohio.  73 Launches were made including about 15 first time flyers.  This is a great experience for first time flyers and Randy Boadway helped a number of kids build and fly their first rockets.  Moon fest is the annual celebration of the Apollo 11 landing on the moon which happened on July 20th, 1969.  A special thanks to the Wright Stuff Rocketeers(WSR) for pulling off another awesome event.

Tuesday, June 14th was a day of fun at STARBASE in Dayton, Ohio.  The Legacy Craftsman Stem Camp which made up of kids of military families and students from the area had a rocket build and launch.  They built Astra III rockets and flew them on A8-3 motors on the grounds.  Ron Stauffer, Randy Boadway and TARC Team Member Evan Wall were in attendance this year.

Dayton Metro Library hosts hands-on rocketeering program

WYSO | By Claire Myree Published July 15, 2022 at 5:23 PM EDT

Dayton Metro Libraries teamed up with a local rockettering organization, Wright Stuff Rocketeers, to host a hands-on rocket program this afternoon.

Children of all ages were invited to build and launch their own mini rockets. Once launched, the rockets reach speeds up to 100 miles per hour before coming back down.

Randy Boadway is the senior adviser of Wright Stuff Rocketeers. He led the children through building their rockets and all necessary safety precautions.

“It’s safe and educational,” Boadway said when asked why the event is beneficial to the community. “There’s real rocket science involved – just on a smaller scale.”

Boadway said Wright Stuff Rocketeers works closely with eRockets, a local company that manufactures rockets and rocket-making kits. He said eRockets has the world’s largest selection of both.

The event was also put on with the help of the Junior League of Dayton. It’s a local volunteer organization that focuses on community service and women empowerment.

Melissa Tolle is a member of the Junior League of Dayton and she also brought her eleven-year old son to the event.

“Dayton libraries have done an amazing job bringing educational and fun activities to the community,” Tolle said. “It’s great to bring that stuff to the community especially in the summertime so kids can continue to learn.”

All participants got to take their rockets home with them.

This is a huge opportunity to teach young people about the hobby, safety, and their ability to reach for the stars.

I try to get the student to think a lot about what is happening to the physics behind rocketry.  This year I flew a Semroc Jupiter B on a C6 motor.  After experiencing how high their classes Astra Rocket's flew on a B6-4 motor, I asked them how high my Jupiter B would fly on a motor that is twice as powerful.  They had mixed answers, but the flight proved the correct answer.

My thanks to Mindy Craft for coordinating this event each year.  She is truly an inspirational teacher who knows how to motivate her students to be their best.

Tuesday's after school the Springboro High School Section meets to discuss rocketry, build or fly rockets.  Randy Boadway dropped in for one of their launches.  Ann Smith is a science teacher at the school who supports the clubs needs.

Steve Kristal dropped in one afternoon to see us at eRockets.  Steve was one of the people who did work on and influnced the design of the MGM-157 Scorch made by North Coast Rocketry.  Steve was also reciently ellected to the National Association of Rocketry(NAR) Board of Directors.

Tom and Jane Zachman bring all of the Southern Ohio NAR Sections together for a lunch and launch in Ripley, Ohio.  Despite being a small club they sure do put together a great event.  Pictured is the Zachman's yard display welcoming rocketeers to the lunch.  Later the group launched in the afternoon and into the evening for their first night launch.  The whole event was a big hit and everyone is looking foreword to another gathering of rocketeers in Ripley, Ohio.

3 rockets for $3 each, that's a hot buy!

WOW 50% off Estes Kits:

There's a thread on TRF about this. This was done at FAR by High Desert Rocketry. The motor was either an Aerotech M1340 or M1419. Eight of the rockets were made though HDR did not indicate if they were scratch or a kit.

The Launch system itself was a FCU-64 by Wilson F/X.

Memorial day 2019 started out as a normal day at eRockets we started early to get packages ready to be out the door the next day.  John came in at 4am to get started and I showed up at 9am to take care of concerns and open the door for shoppers and builders to spend part of their day here.  Joe S was here most of the day and Joe says Murphy follows him around a lot.  As soon as Joe left the building it started to rain.  I was hoping it was going to follow him home.

It was getting late and I decided it was time to turn in.  I swear I was not in bed 5 minutes and the alarm goes off!  Tornado Warning in your area take cover immediately!  Mind you I am in bed all comfy and the big pine tree outside my second story bedroom is still as can be.  It is raining and I can just hear the hail starting.  All I could think about was the hail damage that might occur to the roof.  Than I was completely at easy, I rent!  Who cares how much hail damage we get.  As I fall back a sleep with the gentle pounding of hail on the roof, the alarm goes off again!  Tornado Warning, take cover immediately!  At about 10 after midnight the power goes out.  Finally it is quite and I can sleep.

The next morning I arose with a phone call from John, it was about 5am and he finally made it to work.  He called because there was no power and the area looked like a war zone.  Fortunately for us at eRockets we took on no damage and despite the power loss everything was fine.  I texted Larry to let him know we had no power and I would let him know when we did, plan on a day off.  Little did we know that area was devastated by a number of tornadoes.

By the time I finally crawled out of bed and got a nice shower, in the dark, I was off to work.  I knew from the news that there had been some damage but really did not pay attention to the details.  With no electricity I was expecting slow going on my 5 minute drive to work.  There are a number of lights I had to pass through.  The local authorities had placed stop signs on sawhorses at dangerous intersections.  Some people still don't know that a traffic light without electricity automatically becomes a 4 way stop.  One of the main drags near home was closed going towards the city of Dayton.  My normal 5 minute drive took 30 minutes.  There are a few trees down and a little bit of debris all over the place.  Something had happened, but nothing to panic about.

I heard that the power company had hundreds of people coming into the area to restore power.  10% of their customers were without power.  There is a Casino on the way to work and they were staging incoming crews there to get their assignments.  There must have been 20 trucks with cherry pickers on them when I went by.

I arrived to find the road almost a perfect shad a green from all of the leaves that had been blown off of the trees.  Our yard sign out front was broken by the wind, it had already seen better days.  There was a package sitting outside of our door that the post office delivered, a box of motors from Aerotech.  Great, we needed those.  Since the postal service had already been here at least an hour earlier than normal I started to realize something was happening.  Everything inside and outside of the building looked good, just no power to run the lights and equipment.

Inside the building was nice a cool, the humidity was low because we had the air conditioning on prior to the power going out.  So working inside was quite comfortable.  I wanted to figure out my plan for the rest of the day and the next.  I arranged to go over to our church and hang out with my dog, Daisy, and my laptop to take care of any business I can.  Plus it was order day so I can be back in stock for the next weekend rush.  I also realized I had about 40 orders in the bullpen to pick and ship.  I started in on picking order by flashlight, this was something we could do if the power loss continued.  But how would I print labels?  That is going to take some work.  I figured I had better get to church and see if they can help us with some space, electricity, and internet service to help us out.  But I also had to pack up the truck with the weekend packages and get them to the post office, FedEx and DHL.  The truck was packed full.  Just then our FedEx guy pulls up, he said, no one was open and he saw me and decided to stop, that saved me a drop.

Before I left the building I was texting and talking to people to see if they were OK after the storm.  Everyone reported they were fine, some ran into some issues and some had no water or power.  Soon Julie G walled in the front door and said we just averted a disaster here.  Her husband Jeff got called to help the area emergency task-force to mobilize the response, Jeff is one of the best emergency response people I know.  We chatted for a few minutes and I found her 2 boys were both fine. She when off to check on others.  Minutes later Aaron J arrived on his bike and indicated there was devastation everywhere and he was out exploring and offering help where he could.  I loaded up my dog, laptop, some water and headed off to make my rounds.  Knowing my post office had no power I headed to the next town over to drop off packages.

At the end of Thunderhawk Ct I was met by a caravan of about a dozen utility trucks moving into the area.

I headed North to avoid the traffic.  WOW, it looked like a tornado struck as soon as it turned to the North.  Oh, it had.  Part of a building was down, dumpsters had been blown into the road, trees were down on the road and it looks like snow plows had moved them out of the way to allow traffic to flow.  Apparently that is actually what had happened.  There must have been a dozen building without roofs, they were blown all over the place.  Debris everywhere!

A few blocks further to the North there was no damage and the lights were on.  I headed straight for the Post Office in Huber Heights pulled up to their back door and unloaded onto a big rolling cart.  I rolled the packages inside where 2 clerks were there doing their thing when I announced myself.  You are from eRockets aren't you, I must be famous even with the neighboring post office.  I answered yes, they both had been our our route as a sub picking up parcels.  Everyone knows about the rocket shop in Dayton!

Daisy and I moved on heading for DHL and lunch.  DHL was closed, no power.  McDonalds was a fast bite and I finally got to have an ice coffee!  Down the road was our church where we took refuge to cool off and get some work done.  Daisy was treated like a queen and I was able to finally get to email and phone calls.  Plus I had to get our Purchase Order system up and running so I could place orders.  Since my backup laptop is not always connected to the internet my software was out of date and it would not update so I had to delete and reinstall it.  It is always something.  After a few hours orders were placed, bodies were cooled, and we headed for home for a good night of sleep so we could start all over again with our adventure.

At about 1pm I had decided if we did not have power at eRockets we would have to cancel the open house and build that was planned. This was a tough decision because we had never had to cancel the evening event. But with bad traffic, no power in much of the area and the humid hot conditions being there building in the dark was just not going to happen. Dave C was also in the process of asking WSR members for a role call to make sure we heard from all of the members to validate they were OK and see if they needed help with anything. Many WSR members came foreword offering assistance.

While we were at church I had a chance to talk to or text a number of people.  Everyone was fine and a few had property damage and quite a few had no power or water.  I also devised a plan that would be less disruptive to the business for filing orders the next day.  Run the equipment we needed using power inverters using the club batteries.  The batteries were all there and we have been charging them regularly.  We can have internet access through our phone hot spots.  We have had to do this before when we had internet problems.  We just had to pick orders by flashlight.  I texted our staff with the plan so we could start at 8am Wednesday.

We headed home to our dark apartment, decided on making a PB&J sandwich for dinner, Daisy had her dog food.  Carol ate out on the way home from work.  And at 7:08pm the alarm at the shop went off.  That is great news, the power at eRockets was back on!  I texted our staff and let them know all was as normal starting tomorrow.

Of course being in business having some kind of problem going on is normal.  Not unlike my competitor Apogee having a snow day delay in May!  We had our issues with a computer hard drive going bad, the refrigerator blowing a breaker and bad water so we had to use bottled water to make coffee.  But all was good.

Of course the saga has not yet ended.  I saw on one of the local TV stations they had an article about the Action Sports complex being destroyed.  Oh no, this is close to where our new building is.  We have run out of space and planning on moving to a larger facility closer to the Air Force Museum.  Then the call came in, have you seen your new neighborhood?  It looks like buildings are down there.  Larry was planning on making a delivery of Astra 3 rockets to the Air Force Museum this afternoon and I asked him to stop by the new building to investigate.  He did and after a phone call to the owner of the building I found that there was a lot of damage to the roof.  We need to delay the move again.

So in celebration of this huge disaster to Semroc and the Dayton area we are running a promotion on the Twister, all in good humor...

I wonder if this saga will continue...

Semroc is proud to announce the release of the MX Orbital Transport and MX Cherokee.

The Orbital Transport was the first Micro Maxx rocket to be designed by Semroc, it was delayed because we did not have the best nose cones designed for the kit. Once that was ironed out we released the kit. The design was a collaboration between Randy Boadway and Jay Berry. We wanted to use strong materials and make assembly easy. All of the Semroc Micro Maxx line of rockets includes Basswood Laser Cut Fins so we could make them thin as they are scaled down from the originals. The arts are also engineered to work well for the specific rocket. The Orbital Transport is jigged to go together very straight with very little need to make any measurements during assembly. Durability is also important, the entire hook design for the glider had to be redone to make it strong and reliable. The first boiler plate we were concerned about losing the glider so we painted the glider red so we could easily find it on the ground. That was totally unnecessary as the rocket only flew about 100 feet in the air and it was easy to see the rocket and glider come back to Earth.

The MX Cherokee became a reality after we polled our customers about what MX kit they would like to see. Surprisingly, we already had the nose cone available, so it was an easy development on our part. Phil Queen has done all the MX instructions keeping up with the high standards we place on instructions.

Finally, at eRockets we have all the needed components to fly these tiny rockets including motors and the Micro Maxx Launch Stand that attaches to an existing launch rod to help you get your Micro Max rockets in the air.

eRockets and Dr Zooch are proud to announce that eRockets will be manufacturing some of the Dr Zooch Kits for them.  The kits will have the same fantastic instructions written by the mad Dr Zooch along with modern manufacturing that produces some of the best kits on the market today.   This is a great partnership as parts for kits will now include laser cut materials to make the assembly easier and more detailed.

The Falcon Heavy is the first kit to be re-engineered and released.  Now featuring laser cut shroud, feet covers and flame fins.  The nose cones have also been tweaked to be more realistic.

Mission Models Paints are a Premium product for the modeler.  Designed specifically for Air Brushes.  The line includes a Polyurethane Additive to make the paint extra glossy and durable.  The line also features a top cote in Flat, Semi-Gloss and Gloss.  With over 100 colors in stock there are plenty of choices to get the color right. 

Andrew Bissonnette was at eRockets to introduce his new Crazy 8 Flying Model Rocket Kit. It is a unique design with fins that look like the number 8.  The rocket also flies kind of crazy as the fins are cantored for a crazy flight.  This rocket flies on A and B motors and is available at eRockets.   http://www.erockets.biz/andrews-rocketry-shop-ars-kits/

Micro Maxx is gaining popularity with the new introduction of Semroc MX kits.  Soon we will be seeing the MX Orbital Transport.  Pictured is one of the prototypes with paint and decals.  The Orbital Transport is the first Micro Maxx kit we started working on.  The kit flies great to about 130 feet and the glider does glide back down on its own.  We were so concerned about the glider when we fist designed the kit that we painted it red so it would be tougher to lose.  It really was not necessary as the rocket never goes high enough to leave your sight.  Orbital Transport fans are going to be quite pleased.  We are diligently working on the instructions so we can release this kit.
