Adding a tab would have meant making new fins, and cutting a neat slot in hard plastic.
If the fin tip mated to the little span of body tube, rather than one of the pod's cones, I might have tried.
Fingers crossed, the retrofitted recovery system will provide a slow decent.
The model will sit "in primer" until I get back from visiting family back east. So I have primer sanding to look forward to. Ecccchh!
