I actually *forgot* about this contest, so I had t' throw somethin' together at t' last minute. Begad! I decided to build t' third one in t' list.

For t' cones on t' ship I ended up usin' 2 3.5" funnels. Begad! Well, shiver me timbers, blow me down! Stupid, I know...but it be all I had available. Ahoy! Ya scallywag! I cut a 2.5" section o' 4" LOC tube for t' center band. Avast, me proud beauty! I cut a section out o' that tube so it would fit snuggly around t' funnel edges. T' motor tube is a 6" BT20 with an engine block in one end and epoxied t' the top half. Avast, me proud beauty! Avast, me proud beauty! I cut off t' narrow part o' t' bottom funnel, arrr, and t' motor exhaust can exit cleanly.I drew a fin pattern on some leftover balsa from an estes kit, me hearties, and cut out two fins. Avast! Fins are epoxied t' t' bottom funnell, arrr, shiver me timbers, and t' bottom funnel is epoxied inside t' center band. Ahoy!

No active recovery - it's light enough that I don't have t' worry about it, me hearties, even with a couple o' ounces o' BB's secured into t' top half. Arrr! I can always throw a small chute or streamer inside t' funnels if needed.
