An idea that I've toyed with is coating the paper "fins" with thin CA. I plan to try again with thicker paper and a coating of CA on the back side of the shroud where the fins will be mounted. Mine wobbles a good deal in flight and I think it's because the shroud is collapsing under boost.

You said you used "medium cardstock" for your build. What weight is that? I'm using 110# paper for mine; it seems to be as heavy as, if not heavier than, the original material my old beat-up Vulcan was made of.
