Brief:
Built from a bit o' this and a little o' that....

Construction:
Body tub consists o' a piece o' card stock rolled around two 18mm engine tubes and glued a-la-paper-tiger. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Blimey! 3 fins patterned off fins from a lost "twister" from Estes. Begad! Blimey! NC-2 nose cone from local hobby shop and 1/8" launch lug. Arrr! 24" o' "happy birthday" mylar streamer, 12" o' 1/8" elastic shock cord.

Got t' idea readin' t' "paper tiger" plans on someone's web site. Easy t' build. Used t' three fin alignment guide from an Estes kit to line up fins. Begad! Got t' card stock from vinyl window clin' card (the ones me kids get at parties)

Flight:
Friction fit motor mount. Aye aye! Flies straight and quick up t' about 250ft on B4-4, slight scorch on streamer on ejection (rollin' streamer up t' fit in tube is a bit tricky as it is a tight fit). Ahoy! All in all, shiver me timbers, a lot o' fun.

Summary:
Pro's: A good way t' get scratch buildin' experience on a budget. A good small field rocket, me hearties, recovery within 300 yards every time. Arrr! Ya scallywag! Just a lot o' fun t' fly
