Estes EAC VIPER #0820, BT-55 Upscale, Part 3, Parts

This will be another spare parts build. I've collected too many extra parts over the years.


From the left, going clockwise - 
The original kit had 1/16" thick balsa for the fins. This upscaled build will use 3/32" stock.
An Odd'l Rockets 12" parachute kit
The nose cone is a "Place holder" until I can order the longer BNC-55061 (5.98" long exposed)
The BT-55 tube at 12.92" long (or very close to it)
An Odd'l Rockets Heavy Duty Engine Mount for the BT-55 airframe
Two short 1/8" diameter launch lugs, around .34" long
 A 1/8" wide elastic shock cord, pulled from a retired build.
