It was not a complex rocket to design, but it certainly had several interesting concerns when trying to turn it into a kit for the masses.  First was the needed addition of nose weight to attain proper stability.  We then had to design a set of internal fins and a method of attaching them so that you would be certain to have them lined up properly for the attachment of the external fins.  These internal fins provide critical support to the external fins while also helping to hold the shape of the body during assembly.

The nose cone also presented some interesting design problems as well.  We believe that the end result looks good and is fairly easy to build.  Using a paper cone for the tip kept the price reasonable while also providing a ready-made location for the nose weight.

All in all, we are quite proud of her.  Having spent many a summer visiting lighthouses around New England, the Nantucket Sound has a very warming look while producing stunning flights even in small fields.  We think you will agree that, as odd-rocs go, the Nantucket Sound is a must for ANY fleet!
