Red River Rocketry Starliner DST, Part 1 Parts


I bought this one on sale from Uncle Mike's rocket shack.
An interesting design with conical stability.

Parts were of high quality.
The model is BT-50 based. This is another of the better BT-50s. They seem a bit thicker walled.


The parts of interest:
12" diameter red Mylar parachute.
3" long launch lug
Three small laser cut fins, 3/32" thick stock
20/55 centering ring for shroud base
Tri-fold shock cord mount.
I'll replace with Kevlar from the engine mount.
The conical shroud printed on 65 lb. stock.
I'll scan it and reprint on 110 lb. card stock.
