Default Saucers in Rocksim?

Hey Everyone,
Is there any way to design a simple saucer in Rocksim or OpenRocket? I have some students working on a project and they need to find the CG and CP of a 3-sided balsa flying saucer they are building with a central 18 mm motor tube. Is there another way to find the CG and CP of a saucer?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
