Dr. Zooch Vanguard Eagle Build Part 41 Nacelle Motors


The nacelle Motors are cut from the finger grips on fancy toothpicks.
They work very well for small nozzles.

These are tiny! When cutting, be sure to hold down both ends of the cut or they can fly across the room.

I actually lost one and had to make new bells from my own (fancy) toothpicks.

I would recommend painting them black before gluing them on the nose cone.

I set a drop of thick CYA on a scrap piece of cardboard. Using tweezers, dip the end of the motor in the drop of CYA. While still holding the motor with the tweezers, set it onto the lower end of the nose cone nacelle.


Here's the motors in place.

The self adhesive stickers went on without any problems. You can take a few tries to get the smallest pieces lined up. The adhesive backing allows for lifting and repositioning.

Full color illustrations are provided so there isn't any questions about positioning.
