Here is a pic of what's in the kit.


It's all there -
The large fins, both large and small "shock cord anchors" and the second less detailed nozzle plate.
The launch lugs are still molded into the upper transition and nozzle plate.

Needed for flight conversion -
9" long 20mm tube (BT-20 could work if built up at the top and bottom)
2 3/4" long "engine compartment" tube
Engine hook
Exterior shock cord mount
Shock Cord
Parachute (20" Mylar chute came with the kit)
.16 oz. nose weight
