I typically have more than 1 build going at a time. I decided to work on this while finishing my K&S Satellite Interceptor.
Unfortunately, I forgot the obligatory parts picture.
So, if you will, imagine a picture that contains triangular wooden thingies, round tubular cardboard parts, a round, pointy wachamacallit, and a bunch of other widgets. If you are really good, you can even imagine these on a tropical beach with surf and palm trees.... :wink:
For those not familiar, the rocket is supposed to look something like this...
First step is to attach the stabilizers to the wing. This is the older model where there are 2 separate stabilizers that glue to the wing, not the newer version with a single piece stabilizer and slots. The directions call to mark the wing at 3.5". But I found the stab would overhang the wing. I had to move them in to about 3.25" to properly fit. I used some right angle guides to support while the glue was drying.
After the one side was dry, I flipped it over and did the other. I had to position it so it hung over the table edge to clear the first stab.
