3x Upscale Estes D.A.R.T.
Built a 3.3 times upscale Estes D.A.R.T.
Won the original sized kit back in late 80s, during a summer camp/course, by landing an Alpha closest to target on ground. When i built the original sized kit, i glued the fins on wrong and it flew in loopdy-loops. I made sure to glue the fins on correctly this time  Most people think this rocket is ugly, but i always liked the looks. Suspect this is the first upscale done of it. Nose cone was foam and sanded by hand. Decals by late Joe Grubb. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Q77GDwyOCc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiSE-IV2iSI

It's ugly, but in a cool way. I have an original that I've been thinking about cannibalizing to build a Scud. I'm kinda surprised that eRockets doesn't do the cone in balsa.

Sirius used to have the PNC. They?ve been out of stock for about 4 years now.

Forgot all about Moldin' Oldies. I should ask Gordon if he could do up a cone.

If you have access to a 3D printer there is a SCUD nosecone file for BT-60 over at Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6291493)
You could also scale it up (or down) if you wanted it for a different size body tube
