Revised Plan -- AeroJet 2.5 KS - 18000 Booster Stage
I have been having some issues with the data sheets I was originally using, but thanks to Carl and Don, I now have a better grasp of the dimensions for these Aerobee variants. Below is a more detailed plan for the early three-fin booster, having a length of 78.04".
As before, I'm using a Pete Alway interface idea that Pete used on his BT-60/BT-55 semi-scale model 20-odd years ago. My take on the his original idea is to countersink the support columns into the outer edge of the forward transition, and to sand flats into the dowel stock where they contact the inside surface of the coupler.
The tailcone is not a flight component, but for display. It pops out to allow access to the motor tube.
