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

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