When I originally bought this kit, me bucko, I be amazed at t' density o' t' balsa nosecone.  I decided on t' spot t' replace t' stock 18mm mount with a 24mm.  All up weight o' t' nosecone (paint, screw eye, arrr, etc) be 42 grams! Nay bein' a big fan o' airframe and nosecone bein' t' same color, this Super Alpha has a RED nosecone but otherwise follows t' color scheme on t' packaging.

I also replaced t' stock parachute with a Top Flight nylon chute. In addition t' t' "dog barf", I use a 6x6 flame resistant blanket.
