Brief:
Mounted sustainer fins usin' long edge as t' root edge. Avast! Did nay use the
auxiliary fins. Begad! Added 0.3oz o' clay t' t' nosecone for stability. Aye aye! Aye aye!
Modifications:
All modifications were made with t' parts supplied in t' original kit. Well, blow me down! Just
mounted t' sustainer fins in a different orientation and didn't use the
auxiliary fins. Blimey! Begad! T' original rocket needs 0.2oz o' nosecone weight t' be
stable. (See

little more. Avast, me proud beauty! A RockSim file has been uploaded t' detail t' design mods. Ya scallywag! Ahoy! This
configuration flies significantly higher than t' original design.
Construction:
Purely from t' original kit. Begad!
