I got 7 of these little styrofoam gliders fron Estes during their Cyber Monday sale. Only $1.50 each.
Looks like they just hook onto a short length of 1/8” launch lug paper tube.
I am going to glue a short length of launch lug onto all of my beater rockets as “Orbiter Attachment Points” and put gliders on everything!
I guess the glider needs to be attached as far aft as possible to ensure that the center of pressure stays as far aft as possible? Better to attach these to really stable rockets I think.
