    the firing systems are expensive to use time and time again but as far as i know visco is the best way to link them i havent ever tried it but will be giving it a go this year all you got to do is tape the visco to the Fuse in a row light one end and watch it go lol i dont know of any other way to do it

    Visco is cheap and easy, I tape strips of it to 3mm rigid steel wire so it stays in place then thread my rocket fuses through the middle of the 2, works every time. I've had problems with visco in the past where its moved and jumped around that's why I stared doing it that way.

    Anyone bought the £5 wheel selection from Tesco? Looks decent :D

    I was also looking at them, they look ok for £5 for 2 I suppose.
