finished, the model automatically separates in the middle. The generated
tumbler movement develops enough air resistance for a safe landing.
Usage:
small uncomplicated models
2. Streamer

stance for a safe landing.
Anwendung:
Modelle mit geringem Gewicht, da diese an einem Fallschirm einer zu
großen Windabtrift ausgesetzt wären.

The normal fuses must be inserted carefully into the the cartridge and pushed right into the main body of the
cartrige without bending. To make sure the stay in wedge them with a small piece of art straw or similar. If the
fuse is too tight it will gomout brfor44e reaching the charge. When lit the fuse will burn slowly giving 3 - 6 se-
conds for the operator to run clear.
Electronic fuse
This method of firing depends on a wire with a loop,at the end which has be inserted into the cartridge. The
wire can be held in tight with a small piece of sellotape. When an electrcal charge (at least 6 volt) is put
through the wire it will glow and ignite the cartridge.
Once ignited the cartridge gives out a high pressure gas through an especially formed duct forcing the rocket
in the opposite direction (action and reaction).
When starting a rocket make sure you take the following safety precautions.
Ensure the firing range is clear and the rocket will not fall on other people, cars or animals.
If there are spectators make a countdown to let them know what is going on:
