Rich DeAngelis's Bullpup Iris
This is the standard Estes Bullpup 12D kit, modified with a small payload bay between the forward fins and the nose cone, and a engine mount pulled slightly rearward to allow for a metal spring-clip for the motor. It is internally modified with a Kevlar shock cord mount and a much longer shock cord.

Maiden flight of the Bullpup 12D Iris, this time it left the rod for a good flight on the B6-4
The Nomex protected the parachute this time, but it was shredded in the very next flight!
