Assemble The Spek Rocket
1. Remove the parts for the fin alignment
fixture from the cardboard sheet. Dry as-
semble the parts as shown. Make sure the
tabs on the cross pieces protrude through
the side plates. Apply a bead of wood glue
over the tabs on both sides of the tool. Set
the piece aside to allow the glue to dry.
2. Separate the tubes. Sand off the little
nubs of paper on the ends of the tube using
medium grit sandpaper.
3. Glue one of the red paper tube cou-
plers into the base (as far as it can go) of
the nose cone using thick viscosity CyA glue
(also called super glue). Set it aside to allow
the glue to harden.
4. Taking the point of your hobby knife,
carefully drill a small hole into the base of
the shoulder on the vacuum form plastic
transition. The hole only needs to be slightly
larger than the diameter of the yellow shock
cord.
OPTIONAL: For small altimeters, you will
connect the nose cone directly to the transi-
tion (see "Prepping for Launch" on page 5).
But if you're using the PerfectFlite FireFly
altimeter, you'll need to use the payload
tube. Perform the following two steps to add
the payload tube.
5. Glue the remaining red paper tube
coupler into the front of the plastic transition
as far as it will go using thick viscosity CyA
glue. Set it aside to allow the glue to harden.
6. Using wood glue, attach the payload
tube (the one with the three small holes in it)
onto the red coupler at the base of the plas-
tic nose cone. Optional: You can tape the
nose on instead of gluing it, so the payload
tube can be removed if you use a smaller
altimeter than the FireFly.
