Just for funzies, I downsized a bunch of 13mm rockets I'd designed to Micro Maxx scale. This was relatively easy since the Micro Maxx motors are exactly HALF the diameter of 13mm motors, though I did need to re-position the thrust rings inside.
Each rocket is comprised of a body part and a nose part and considering how small they are, they're pretty quick prints. Most of these will quickly zip out of sight on a Micro Maxx motor, with only the V-2 flying lower and slower and...being fatter, easier to see.
You can see in the photo how small they are. The roll of masking tape is provided for scale. The cat is provided because he was trying to figure out what the heck his hooman was doing.
Be sure you tape around the Micro Maxx motor so that it's snug in the rocket. Otherwise the motors will tend to eject and the rocket will come down ballistically. Don't ask me how I know. (Disclaimer: No one got hurt launching these rockets...this time).
You can launch these on any Micro Maxx launch pad, or print my pad (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6649892) that you can make using a piece of piano wire.
There are certainly other places, but I got my Micro Maxx motors here: https://www.asp-rocketry.com/ecommerce/Micro-Maxx-Model-Rocket-Engines-6-Pack-.cfm?item_id=416&parent=88&navPanel=1
Links to launch videos below. Warning, they're hard to see because they're so very small and pretty quick. The goblin we downright lost for 20 minutes and only found it by walking around...a lot. These are all clips from the same video so you can just click on the goblin link and keep watching to see them all.
