Some of you might be aware of the mishap I had with the first flight of 5 Times A Fool. As I said, I'm rebuilding it. "Rebuild" might be a generous term, since all I can save from the original are the rail buttons and nose cone. Version 2 will be different, I've decided to make it zipperless. I'm also making the fins 10% smaller, and using 1/4" plywood instead of the 5mm I used on the first one. The 5mm was birch, but only three layers and not very strong. The 1/4" that I got from Michael's is five layer and much more robust. I've also decided to mix up the paint scheme, with a black forward section and a red aft section, with one black fin.
