Explorer Post 1010 Lockheed Martin Exploring Program Designs |
This year we will use 2.6in BT80 rocket tubes for all our rockets. We will also constrain ourselves to 24mm motors of the E and F class. The egg and altimeter will be in a cargo unit. We have two design nose cones - elliptical and ogive. Estes makes inexpensive plastic nose cones in both these designs - PNC-80bb and PNC-80k.
PNC-80bb
PNC-80k The challenge will be in the streamers and increasing the descent rate.
