Here is a design I call the Tau Astron Nomex. I have experimented a little with Jay's Tau nose cone and realize just how darn good it makes a longer rocket look.
Very Very Cool! Although I would rather have it in a lighter PNC version where it would be a little lighter and clay nose wieght could be added if necessary.
As far as these thin rounded fins go, I am calling them out as 3/32" thick balsa, yet I think they need not be cardstock.(wieght factor). Here are two other choices:
A: Use 1/16" balsa and rienforce both sides with mailing label self stick paper???
B: Use the 3/32" balsa and paint both sides after mounting with CA??
Both choices should be lightwieght and strong. Any opinions and other options welcome.
This one is for the Sci-Fi fans.
Enjoy and Thanks Again, JP
