reading a post requesting the parts kit...got me thinking about the 'olde school' method of making custom details. the dorsal fin antenna are little more than cut down round toothpicks, the tailcone can be made from a transition (forward dia. 1.325" aft dia. 1.0625" length 0.625") and some 3/32" x 1/8" balsa stock. the 'hard' part are the wing pods(trying to find the nose cones) you would need a pair of 3.5 : 1 ogive cones in bt5 flavor, a couple of bits of bt5 tube, a pair of rounded conical (length approx. 11/16") nose cones, and some fins (looks like they are scaled down versions of the ventral fins) I think some 1/32" birch ply would probably work. comments?
