This video shows step-by-step instructions for building the Cluster Duck mid-power rocket by North Coast Rocketry.
Part 1: engine mounts, fin assembly, launch lugs.
Part 2: recovery system, final assembly, paint, decals.

That cable, crimping and shrink tubing is dubious at best? Why not just braided kevlar, it be lighter? Plus that whole huge elastic shock cord also. Is that really needed?

[@REAR_rockets]

I'll know more after I launch it. This whole recovery system is different from anything I've built before. Theoretically, the combination shock cord should be easier on the rocket as long as it doesn't burn or get tangled. I think the cable was completely superfluous, but I'll reserve judgement until after a few flights.

That's a very interesting rocket. Congratulations on it's construction. Can't wait to see it fly!
