They never provided a POUND of lead weight for this model.

central plastic halves.
The back end got a engine hook and a brown "liner" tube to bring down the inside diameter for a better engine fit.
There's a short shock cord glued to the outside of the 20mm tube.
A large 20" mylar parachute that'll never fold small enough to fit in the main body.
The round lead weight is 16 oz.


I'm curious if the new re-issue includes the larger fins.
They were used on the flying version
