New Way Firecat 4 Build, Part 1, Parts




I've built a New Way A-20 Demon before. It's a great kit and a change from the ordinary.

This kit has that bulbous nose cone. What makes it fun is how it is built up. A balsa pyramid on top, four side pieces make up the bottom.




Even the launch lug is square!

The engine mount centering "squares" aren't a perfect square, the corners are rounded off to better fit inside the square body tube.
More parts in the next post!

  1. Hmmm... I would have expected a square transition - sort of the nose “cone” in reverse rather than laser cut puzzle piece style. Interesting!

    1. Hi Openroad,
      The pieced nose cone transition was one of the reasons I bought the kit!
