New Design - Emperor Khufu
Another asymmetrical beast. This one features "rear ejection" from the forward fuselage. The Dv numbers are high, so reef the shrouds to prevent explosive openings.
Length: 42.90"
Diameter: 1.34" (ST-13)
Fin Span: 8.84"
Weight: 3.29 oz
The only engine recommended for this design is the Quest C6-5Q. The Estes C6-5 deploys with even higher Dv numbers. Average altitude is 525' over 6 runs. Average Dv is 28 FPS.
Ejection gases are ducted through the large (hollow) pylons connecting the sections.
Enjoy!
