Along with
resurrecting this build over in the "Projects" forum, I hammered out this RockSim file today.
While the ST-7 and -13 tube diameters upscale 1.37X to ST-10 and -18, I fudged the PR-1018 transition and ST-1830 tube lengths a little bit. The transition is 2" long, and the body tube is an even 3" long. So technically the fins have been upscaled only
1.33X so they won't extend .0825"(less than 1/12") past the end of the body tube.
