Estes Condor #0807 Build, Part 2, Some Extra Parts




I don't know why - 
The build requires three short launch lugs. 
The kit included seven lugs.







You only need two centering rings, 
The kit included four in total.

It's interesting to look back on the older kits. In the ring at the upper left, the center circle isn't perfectly centered. 
The engine hook notch is a bit crooked.





The back side of the face card has a printed tri-fold mount. Another separate mount is included.

That small dowel is glued to the nose of the glider. It hooks over a lug on the booster during launch.








In older kits you can usually count on replacing the rubber shock cord and parachute tape disks.

The kit supplied shock cord was 18" long.
