Default What did we decide this rocket was?

Hi folks,
I recently won this decal set of Ebay so I could clone the rocket on the front. There was a fairly long thread devoted to its creation here, but for the life of me, I cannot find it.
Would one of you be so kind as to point it out to me?

Many thanks!

Allen

That's it! I knew it was a long thread...

Thank-You, Scott! That was FAST!

When I build it, I'll post here.

Default Need a little more info...

OK,
I've reread the entire thread. I have a fix on everything except the fin dimensions which someone said they would post to the Designer Studio. I cannot find it there.
I know the root edge is about 6.75 inches, at least for the 'wings,' not the rudder fin?
Looks like Daniel used a 14 inch BT?

Default Sorry...

Sorry, I just found this.

BT is 12" and a BT-60
Let me find the fins.
Do you have Rocsim?

Default Wing pods?

How do you plan to attach the wing pods?

No, Daniel, I do not have Rocsim.
Is it possible to make them into a PDF for a BT-60 ?
I plan to, most likely, cut out the wings for the pods. Since I'll use epoxy there, the wing ought to stay reasonably strong then.

I had to look up the original thread, too. Was there any change made to the RockSim file after the V5.0 post ( #61 )? If not, I can whip up a laser burn pattern from the SVG images and post them here.
