Next week, my club is going to have an informal 13mm duration competition. I never win these things but do like to take part. With only a week to go, I realized that I didn't have anything ready to enter and started looking through the inventory. I found the Red Alert. It seemed light and would go pretty high on an A despite the draggy nose cone. Besides, it was near the front of one of the pegs and that made it easy to choose since I recently reorganized and hung everything up.
The Red Alert comes with a streamer and I like streamers but for this one, I will probably try to stuff a parachute in it to get the maximum hang time.
Construction on this one started out by coupling the 2 BT5 tubes. There was a longer one and a shorter one and they were joined with an insert coupler and yellow glue.
