Exclamation New Plan -- 1.3X EAC Viper

I thought I heard someone mentioning out loud they were wanting to do an upscale of this one, so I decided to come up with a very simple version based on SEMROC ST-13 components...

One change I added to this version is an ejection charge baffle, located at the joint of the two body tubes. One non-simulated afterthought would be to glue a 1/4" or 5/16" hardwood dowel at the center of the baffle and tap the forward end with 2-56 threads; then attach the forward plate of the baffle in place with a matching nylon screw. This would allow for easier cleaning of the burnt particles that will accumulate inside.

Length: 28.7"
Diameter: 1.34"
Fin Span: 6.84"
Weight: 2.23 oz

B4-4.....270'.....25 FPS
B6-4.....270'.....20 FPS
C6-5.....670'.....18 FPS

Skill Level 1.

Enjoy!
