My Estes/North Coast Phantom 4000 has spent much of the winter sitting leaning about 45 degrees in my garage. The two fins it was sitting on have warped toward the third fin. Attached is an attempt at a drawing of what it looks like.
Anyone have any idea how I can quickly correct this warping?? The rocket is currently sitting up straight on its fins, and over the past twelve hours the warping is a little less prominent, but still enough to drastically alter its flight path.
Estes used the cheaper three-ply wood in their kits (My Big Brute came with all four fins warped, but all the same way, so it flies ok, just with a very fast spin rate).
