I agree with GH and Zep about the 24mm mounts. Putting one of those in just makes for a more versatile rocket.

The one Patriot I built was modified to fly the FSI F100 motor. I replaced the nose cone with a transition up to a wider payload section with clear tubing and larger nose cone. Won a prize for it at a KentCon kit bashing contest. Flew it once and it blew to smithereens when the F100 catod.

Sounds like a plan...
