Mr. cook.
Thank you so much for digging this up and posting it. It is well appreciated.

Thanks to the rest of you for the responses!

Wallyum, This plan was not an Estes DOM, rather it was merely submitted to 'The Model Rocketeer'. I was quite surprised at the time to see that it actually got published!

Anyway, I'm going to build another one here in a month or two as part of my 'Old Fleet Re-Creation' project.

The original Canopus was my 8th ever model rocket build, designed and built in 1973-4. It was my first cluster model. It flew about five or six times before being lost in 1975. I recall that it really soared on an A8-5 core and two A10s in the pods. Fun bird. If anyone cares to build one of their own and try it out, let me know all about it!

Thanks, again!
