It also uses the SLS version of the Tau nose cone... Length: 33.51" Diameter: 1.84" (BC-225103) Fin Span: 11.60" Weight: 6.81 oz Launch rod: 48" x 3/16" D12-5.......548'......Dv 14 FPS D15-6T......699'......Dv 27 FPS......Reef the parachute E18-8......1627'......Dv 27 FPS......Reef the parachute Enjoy!

No, and yes... I just looked at the SEMROC parts page to find this one. It's been so long since I worked this one up, I forgot that the BC-225103 is just a standard ogive, an upscale of the classic 50Y shape. Carl might one day work up a Tau cone in this size range, but he doesn't have this one yet. You will need to take a matching transition and remove the shoulder from the large end, remove the shoulder from the nose cone, and glue the two together.
