The square tank is 1” x 1” x .25”. The fuel ports are .1” dia with a .0625” hole. Volume of the tank is .825”x .825”x .150”

Nylon is already loaded in the printer with a .25mm nozzle.

The manual will tell you for sure.. but it looks to me as though the parts called "bullets" are what close the throttle and deploy the drag-chute. I would guess that a single bullet is threaded-onto the guide-line (and maybe secured by a knot?)somewhere around 3/4 of the way down the track.     ???

You may have also seen the below photos.. but I'll post em' because of their relevance..

Thanks for those pictures roddie, helps a lot.  I have never seen what those little "bullets" look like.

I did receive that manual bought on ebay for $13. + and near worthless.  A reprint so light it's barely readable, cut at an angle and stapled together randomly.  Gotta leave one of my very rare negative feedbacks.

And Jason.  They look great.  PM sent.
