I think it was yesterday, because I was still working on the Antares PDF at the time.

Heh, I rarely use the program myself. So, no, I haven't played with any of the new features yet.

Revised plan -- Mini Loader
From 2003...
This is another "Schoolyard Sounder", with very classic styling. The performance is outstanding, too! 1/4A3-3T......190'......3.52 FPS 1/2A3-4T......425'......7.71 FPS The full A3-4T and the A10-3T are NOT recommended for this model; the deployment V is too high, because the delay times are too short. First time I've run this one through RockSim. This one is going to become part of my personal inventory soon!

Revised plan -- 1971 Parts Catalog Demo Rocket
I've gone back to this design and changed the nose cone to look more like the Gemini capsule from the original. I wound up using two balsa transitions and a solid balsa piece which look like and approximate the length of the BNC-60AB.
The pod nose and tail cones are still simulated as mass objects... It still flies like a pig...

New Plan -- Mini 'Mega
This model is a simple 60% downscale of the Estes Astron Omega. Excellent performance on 18mm motors.
B6-0/B6-6.....1115'.....7.54 FPS C6-0/B6-6.....1540'.....10.33 FPS B6-0/C6-7.....1720'.....19.62 FPS C6-0/C6-7.....2110'.....12.83 FPS All simulations show a 36" rod is sufficient for stability. Enjoy!

Revised plan -- Tempest
This was never posted here on the forum, but there is a PDF on the website. Up to this point it has remained a CONCEPT design, without being run through RockSim. I have now run the simulation, and have some good numbers, meaning it will shortly be moved to the PROVEN page.
B6-0/A8-5......550'.....22 FPS B6-0/B6-6......790'.....30.2 FPS C6-0/A8-5......900'.....10 FPS C6-0/B6-6.....1120'.....22 FPS This model uses a paper shroud, similar to the Laser-X. The upper body tube is hidden behind the shroud in the simulation, but on the model it would be there... Enjoy!

Revised plan -- Triton
Another plan from the CONCEPT page on the website...
This is a three-stage model, with a wide range of motor combinations to reach anywhere from 935' to 2400' altitude. All SEMROC components. This model requires an 8'-10' launch tower for safe flight. B6-0/B6-0/A8-5......935'......9 FPS B6-0/B6-0/B6-6.....1217'......4 FPS C6-0/B6-0/B6-6.....1495'......10 FPS B6-0/C6-0/B6-6.....1585'......20 FPS C6-0/C6-0/A8-5.....1620'......29 FPS B6-0/B6-0/C6-7.....1770'......26 FPS C6-0/C6-0/B6-6.....1875'......15 FPS B6-0/C6-0/C6-7.....2140'......18 FPS C6-0/C6-0/C6-7.....2400'......18 FPS Enjoy!

Revised plan -- Deltoid
Yet another revision of an early plan, the Deltoid was loosely based around the Boeing Delta and the Custom Serval. This model has a good power range, from BP D12 to AP F21.
Important note -- When using either a D12 or an E9, you need to use a 48" launch rod. All other motors have sufficient impulse to achieve safe flight velocity on a 36" rod. Power settings: D12-5.......690'......16 FPS E9-4.......1080'......29 FPS E28-5......1280'......24 FPS F12-5......1470'.......2 FPS F39-6......1480'.......5 FPS F21W-6.....1675'......23 FPS Enjoy!

Revised plan -- Minotaur
One more 2003 design brought up-to-date through RockSim...
Big, burly payload lofter capable of decent performance. Skill Level 2. Power settings: D12-5.......590'.......12.0 FPS......48" x 3/16" rod E9-6.......1040'.......20.0 FPS.......8' tower E15-7......1600'.......17.0 FPS......48" x 3/16" rod F24-7......1810'........5.2 FPS......48" x 3/16" rod Enjoy!
