I hate to admit this, but Jim was right.
However, I recently noticed that EMRR had a "Box O' Parts" contest (which I was too busy to participate in, due to the recurring intrusions of real life), and I threw together a list of parts that *I* would have included. Then I took it one step further, and tried to figure out how *I'd* put them together.
To that end, I present the "Zeta" (pronounced "ZAY-tuh").
Parts list (all components by Semroc):
BC-760 Nose cone
SE-14 Screw eye
ST-7120 Body tube
ST-530 Body tube (2)
ST-1040 Body tube
CR-710 Centering rings (2)
EH-28 Engine hook
TR-7 Thrust ring
LL-117 Launch lug
EC-130 Elastic cord
SCK-24 Kevlar shock cord
CP-12 Parachute (Use a streamer for B and C-powered flights.)
3/32" balsa
(This may take a few consecutive posts, so I apologize in advance.)
As always, pertinent comments or questions are welcome. Impertinent ones will be dealt with accordingly.
Thanks, and cheers,
