Exclamation New Plan -- Apokalypsis

Pronounced: a-po-ka' ly-psis

I just like the sound of the name...

This was a simple doodle in RockSim tonight. Try to imagine those fins as being nose cones with pod bodies stuck on the tips, similar to those on the Antares.

Good performance, low Dv numbers. All motors reach safe flight velocity on a standard 36" x 1/8" launch rod.

Length: 23.30"
Diameter: 0.908" (ST-8)
Fin Span: 5.53"
Weight: 1.23 oz

A8-3.......232'......Dv 6 FPS
B4-4.......526'......Dv 15 FPS
B6-4.......531'......Dv 19 FPS
C6-5......1084'......Dv 16 FPS

Enjoy!
