Starlight Jayhawk Build Part 5 Fin Fitting

With the addition of the tail cone assembly, you'll have to cut 1.4" from the supplied BT-50 tube.
This will get you close to the slightly upscaled Centuri version.



The engine mount / shroud assembly is glued into the main body tube.

After test fitting the three shrouds, I got a great fit to the BT-50 body tube.



Mr. Bob did a great job of upscaling the main fins to this slightly larger BT-50 sized model.

But, the laser cut fins supplied with the kit won't match the added boat tail.

We'll tackle this in the next post.
