| Cougar 440! Even
the name sounds FAST! And fast she
is, too! Employing minimum diameter body tube for 13mm motors, this model also
sports a parabolic nose cone and 1/64", aircraft grade plywood for the fins.
Also provided are 3 different fin patterns, giving you the
ultimate in customization for such a model. Choose from parabolic, swept parabolic
and asymmetric parabolic.
Enhancing the competition nature of this kit, the Cougar 440
comes with a large 4" X 40" competition grade streamer with detailed
assembly instructions. For sport and test flights, a 20" crepe paper streamer
is also included.
Rounding out this champion is the inclusion of a Pop-Lug
kit with full instructions. The Pop-Lug allows you to launch your Cougar 440 on any
conventional launch pad (with a 1/8" launch rod) WITHOUT the drag penalty of carrying
a launch lug on the rocket (up to a 15% savings in drag!). The Pop-Lug
stays on the launch pad allowing the Cougar 440 to climb to incredible altitudes,
unencumbered with added drag!

as it leaves the pad, blurring even under a fast shutter! |
