Exclamation New Design -- Nike-Tomahawk

I did not two-stage this simulation, so that I could keep the design simple. It is large enough that it might be possible, but I think it would require electronics, and that would mean additional weight, meaning it would need composite motors...

Simple is sometimes better...

Length: 36.89"
Diameter: 1.70 (ST-16; The extra is the bulge of the transition.)
Fin Span: 6.30" (Nike fins)
Weight: 3.02 oz

All simulations require a 48" x 3/16" rod.


C11-5......450'......Dv 21 FPS
D12-5......906'......Dv 6 FPS.......Optimum motor
E9-6......1411'......Dv 14 FPS......Second-best motor


Enjoy!
