IMPORTANT: always use positive motor retention to secure the motor in the motor
tube. Failure to use motor retention may allow the motor to be ejected during the
ejection charge instead of the parachute, making for a dangerous ballistic reentry.
IMPORTANT: always remember to check your balance point and ensure your CG
is forward of the recommended CG point.
IMPORTANT: Always follow the NAR safety code and remember that rockets
are not toys and can be dangerous if not prepared and used properly. If you
are a beginner, it is a good idea to
fl
y with a club or other group of experienced
rocketeers until you have gained some experience.

Step 6 – Flying Your Model
Attach the end of the shock cord from the
fi
n can to the aft eye bolt of the altimeter bay.
Also attach a second shock cord from the forward eye bolt of the altimeter bay and the
nose cone eyebolt. Attach your parachutes and chute protectors to the approriate place.
When packing your chute, wrap the chute protector around the chute with the opening in
the chute protector facing forward. Always make sure your chute is well protected as the
hot ejection motor gasses will melt the nylon chute.
