Public Missiles Cirrus Build

Lucas · Sep 7, 2006

Hi everyone, I just got the PML Cirrus Dart yesterday and I am going to begin construction tomorrow probably. I just was wonder, before I start to build it, what people have done for motor retention. Has anyone moved the fin slots up a little and used a slimline?

No. But I wish I would have.

Alrirght, so I will plan on doeing that unless someone has a good reason why I should not.

I've never used a slimline, but isn't there some increased thicknes beyond the body tube? Wouldn't that really cause aerodynamic issues?

I was thinking about just using a friction fit, or a very small assemly epoxied into the fin fillet... haven't quite figured out what though..
