Scale model of the British surface to air missile.
12 fins, lots of cardstock nose cones, shrouds and nozzles.
Not for the beginner, but if you want a challenge, this is it.
Maidened on the minimum recommended motor, the delay was too long.
Ejection at 40', chute barely deployed. Some landing damage.
Easily repaired.

I've had that bird on my list for quite some time but I'm leary of all the card stock parts. I'm spoiled by fiberglass and canvas builds. :p
