Draconian Morauder tube and cone size needed
I'm cloning this Centuri model as I'm planning to do an upscale version.
I want to build the model to gain some insight on how to best do the upscale. there is a kit on ebay but $40+ is more than I care to pay for one I'm planning an order to Semroc for parts but, I'm stuck trying to figure out the body tube diameter and length (part # 31110) nose cone (part # 72089) It wouldn't hurt to know the Pod tube size (part #31030) but I think I can figure that out after I assemble the Nuclear missile heat sinks. can anyone shed some light or point me to a reference for these cryptic part #'s ? Thanks in advance |

Excelsior has the decal so that parts easy.
I noticed while gathering data that the decal file on Jimz site has a Red circle behind the skull however all the kit cards and build pics I have seen show a black circle behind the skull. What would be the kit correct color? Excelsior does not have a thumbnail up on the website yet. |

Bill, thank you sir !
I put alot of time into redrawing all the templates squaring up and "accurising" them. I can send them to YORP if they are needed. Hopefully I can create a usable parts list as well ! The original diecut scans are really out of whack, I guess from the scanning process involved. I sure hope the actuall kit wasn't like that ! |

The pod tubes are 2" long.
Main body tube is the Centuri equivalent of a BT-50. 10" length. Nose cone is 5.5" long. (4.5" cone, 1" tang.) I have the diecut stuff if that will help.

yes please ! while you have the kit out.. if you can caliper the thickness of the diecut cards that would save me alot of guesstimation troubles.Or give me your best guess if you don't have a caliper. in the instructions there is listed die cut paper- thin die cut- medium die cut - and thick die cut- knowing the thickness's would help immensly ! no wonder clones of this kit are non-existant..lol oh while I have you working now ..hehe I'm curious, what color is the circle behind the skull in your kit? |

There's a thumbnail of the decal on my web site. OK, it's kinda small. The kit card does show a black background but the scan has it red. Since the Skull has a black outline I think the red circle would be better.

Circle is red behind the skull. I've got everything scanned, but it won't let me post them here due to size. PM me with your e-mail and I'll send them to you. As for a caliper, I don't have one, but if you want, I'll snip a corner off each one and send it to you. Let me know. These are actually the thin die cut and die cut paper scans. Medium and heavy were too big.
