Estes Lynx, Kit #7233, Build Part 5, Clay Nose Weight



You are directed to cut off 1/4 of the clay pat.
The clay starts at .25 oz. With 1/4 removed it ended up at .19 oz.
Pretty close to the actual .1875 oz. it should be.

TIP: Instead of making long worms out of the clay, roll small balls out of the clay. 
It's easier dropping a few in and packing them down instead of chasing around a clay worm inside the nose cone.

  1. That's a great tip - I'm gonna use that one next time I need to add clay!

    1. Hi Daniel,
      This tip came from Sirius Rocketry kit instructions.
