New Way Mars Snooper II, Build, Part 4, Nose Cone Prep



Clay nose weight is provided.
I rolled it into a conical shape for an easy insertion into the nose cone.
The clay was tamped and leveled with the flat end of the supplied dowel.


The plastic nose cone had a flattened top.

The tip was rounded with some sandpaper.







The nose cone shoulder lip was slightly wider than the upper BT-20 tube.
This was reduced with some 220 grit on a sanding block.




The base of the nose cone is glued in place.

I used Beacon Fabri-Tac glue.
