what kits for streamer & parachute duration

Yes, the shock cord goes on the outside. A pile or resident experts on the forum tell me it's so the rocket comes down sideways, making more drag, hence longer durations. Great idea, huh. I think I'm gonna go with the cougar for one of my NARTREK competition requirements.

I think the cougar is going to have a MUCH longer duration time that what I used for Bronze level, so find a big field for your flight!

I might have to try it at Whitakers first, unless I have a fairly calm day closer to home sometime. If I like what I see, I may try to make it to the next NARAM and give streamer duration a go.

I would be most interested in your results of using the Cougar for NARTREK

On a ½A no less! The size of that streamer, and the weight of that rocket, I think a 30+ second duration is well attainble! If not an A10 should certainly be enough! I think I'll paint it blue!
