Recently picked up this kit.
It is a basic 3 fin kit with the following specs:
Length: 46.5"
Diameter: 4.0"
Weight: 37oz.
MM: 38mm
Fins: 1/4" plywood
9/16 tubular nylon shock cord
Delrin rail buttons
As with all Madcow kits the components are very high quality and directions very clear. Going to build this all stock with only minor adjustments to shock cord attachment and I will be using a AP motor retainer. All epoxy build with JB weld used on the retainer.
Here is a picture of the parts.
Dry fit ... damn thats big lol
Didn't take pics of the boring motor mount construction. However, it is standard fare with 2 plywood centering rings and an eyebolt attached to the forward ring for recovery attachment. Peeled the glassine layer off the mm tube for better adhesion of the centering rings. Tubular nylon atached per instructions, stuffed into the mm then the entire thing epoxied into the body tube.
More pis to follow.
