Chris, I apologize for not being more specific. I'm interested in re-creating the Centuri MX-774 kit using the resin PNC-89 nose cones I have--"building a scale model of a scale model," so to speak. That's why I'm looking for the fin dimensions and the balsa fin sheet thickness from the Centuri kit.

Nonetheless, I'm glad that you posted those links and I thank you for doing so! Using them, *real* scale competitors (which I most definitely am *not*) can produce accurate scale models of the MX-774 for NARAM and International scale competition. If the performance of the Centuri kit is anything to go by, the MX-774 (built to the Centuri kit's or other scale factors) might even be a contender in Scale Altitude competition!
