Wink 3th day Before Christmas.

3th day Before Christmas.

Here is a design I have called the Saturn Z. It uses an 18mm motor mount and with a C6-7 will attain an altitude of over 1000 feet.

The center exterior ST-5 pod tubes were simulated using the inside tube method and not the tube fin method. The forward end of these tubes are cover up by a CR. I chose not to use the tube fin method because there is no airflow passing thrrough these pods, only the exterior surface. Also the tube fin method allows for alot of drag which changes the simulation for the worse. Your INPUT on this simulation will be greatly appreciated, JP

Enjoy and to ALL a Merry Christmas.
