Default CP location on a body tube

Hi Folks,

I have a question about the Cp location on just a plain body tube. I would have thought the Cp of a body tube would be at the mid-point of the tube at the same location as the Cg. But when I put a body tube into a new sustainer design in Rocksim the Cp is at the extreme end of the tube. Is that right or is my Rocksim Cp calculator broken? Thanks!

Roy

PS What brought this on was I downloaded a Rocsim file of the Estes Pathfinder and when I opened it the Cp marker was located at the tip of the nose cone
