Sparse directions for this MadCow Mozzie say to stuff the shock cord into the hole (cavity) in the balsa nose cone and then fill the hole with expoxy. But... Madcow includes an eye-bolt and nut (with no explanation what they these parts are to be used for).
Instead of stuffing expoxy and string in the nose cone could I drill and screw an eye-bolt into the balsa nose cone and attach the shock cord to the eyebolt (or similiar eye-bolt). I would like to leave the cavity free for me to adjust the nose cone weight (and Center of Gravity) if need be as I add larger motors down the road. (I'm using a motor retainer). An eyebolt in the balsa nose cone would allow me to change the shock cord if need be.
But really have no idea what I am doing or if and eye-bolt would be ripped out of the balsa end grain by the force of the shock cord.
