I bought my first model rocket today, constructed and launched it as well. It is Estes brand Silver Arrow. I messed up in attaching the shock cord. When gluing the shock cord to the inside of the rocket, I either didn't attach it well, or didn't wait long enough for the glue to dry. Point being, when I launched my rocket, all went well, until it broke apart to deploy the parachute. the body snapped off and fell to the ground, and the wind carried my parachute and nose cone into a forest. Needless to say, it is lost. This brings me to my question: What size nose cone does an Estes Silver Arrow have? I've searched everywhere and can't find the name or number of the cone. If you knew where to find this information, or where to buy one, I would appreciate it. Also, I need another shock cord and parachute as well, and I would like to know if there are any specific ones I need to buy for this particular rocket. ANY advise would be greatly appreciated.
