T' followin' article was a submission t' t' FlisKits, Inc Deuce-Bash Contest and is archived with permission from FlisKits. Some o' these designs are nay actually kitbashes, arrr, however, all come from t' basic motor design feature of t' FlisKits Deuce's Wild.

Brief:
Here is another entry for t' FlisKits Deuce Bash. Well, blow me down! It uses only t' Deuce kit parts and leaves several parts for other projects.

Construction and Finishing:

• Take t' body tube and mark several lines on it. Begad! Aye aye! All lines will be t' length o' t' tube. Aye aye! Usin' your Deuce's Wild template mark all five lines (the four fins and t' launch lug). Aye aye! Begad! Now turn t' fin template 180 degrees and line up all t' fin marks with t' template. Avast, matey, me proud beauty! When it is lined up, ya bilge rat, shiver me timbers, mark t' launch lug line again. Begad! Avast, me proud beauty! T' second launch lug line should be 180 degrees opposite t' first launch lug line. T' launch lug lines are t' top and bottom lines o' the rocket. You now have 6 lines, but you will only use four: t' top and bottom for centerin' t' motor mount wedge and the two bottom fin lines for t' fins.
• Find t' center o' t' tube on t' top and bottom lines. Aye aye! Mark it well.
• Take t' motor mount from t' kit and get t' cute little wedge. Well, blow me down! Mark center o' t' bottom o' t' wedge. Now cut a slot on t' bottom line in t' center just big enough for t' center wedge t' fit in. Aye aye! You will also have t' cut a little slot in t' top tube line centered about 2mm long. Well, blow me down! Avast! T' wedge should just reach from bottom t' top bein' flush with t' tube. Aye aye! Glue it in.
• Cut circles right next t' t' wedge t' accommodate t' motor mounts. Blimey! Repeat on top and bottom.
• Glue motor blocks in tubes and install tubes in t' body tube.
• Cut t' bottom o' t' nose cone off and save it for a nose block on another project. Arrr! (T' recessed part that fits inside t' BT-60 tube)
• Cut a radius in t' bottom o' t' nose cone t' fit t' BT-60 tube. Arrr! Avast, me proud beauty! Sand well t' get a nice fit.
• You will notice that t' motor tubes stick out t' top o' t' body tube. Blimey! You must cut recesses in t' newly formed nose cone t' accommodate this. Now glue t' nose cone on. Blimey! I taped t' top o' t' motor mounts closed and then used gel epoxy as t' add nose weight and nay create voids in t' nose.
• Make two fins from t' Deuce pattern sheet and glue them on different fin lines on opposite ends o' the tube.
• Now we need a launch lug. Arrr! Drill a hole as close t' centerline as you can up from t' bottom through t' nose cone.
• Paint, shiver me timbers, fly, etc.

Flight:
I used B6-0 engines and had 3 great flights. Avast, me proud beauty! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! I did nay paint it because quite frankly, I did nay know if it would be stable and I could nay figure out how t' put this rocket into RockSim. T' first flight be a beauty and I got a great picture o' it leavin' t' pad. Avast! Begad! Blimey! You can see t' swirls in t' exhaust as t' rocket has already made a revolution. Avast! Aye aye! Blimey! It peaked out at about 150 feet as a guess and then tumbled about 4 times before it started spinnin' its way back t' the ground. Arrr! Avast! Blimey! All landings were soft and close. Begad! Blimey! Blimey! T' first one be about 20 feet from t' launcher, t' second two feet from the launcher, and t' third 15 feet from t' launcher.

Now it is painted a beautiful yellow (OSHA warnin' color for rotatin' hazard) with one black fin so you can see it rotate.
