I didn't have a chance to add the ACME with the warm day running out. It also still needs the shifters and electric wired up (the headlight behind the removable nosecone tip and the taillight in the exhaust nozzle triggered by switches at the tops of the shifter handles). The delay is in building unobtrusive retainers for the outer section of the shifters as the rotating part is normally held in place by being sandwiched between the grips and the fixed portion of the shifters. The retainers need to rotate independently, allow the switch's internal wire routing, and be adjustable for tension externally (though from within the rocket body). After about five ideas, I finally have a solution in mind that I like. For such a goofy custom that almost looks like it was cobbled together at the last minute for a local parade, it has required a deceivingly high amount of engineering!
