Default New Design -- Centuri Power Systems X-16

It's been a while since I've made a contribution to BARCLONE so two files for your enjoyment .....

Centuri Power Systems X-16 built entirely with SEMROC parts. Decals by Sandman. Laser cut balsa fin set made assembly a breeze. SEMROC has almost all the parts listed here:

http://www.semroc.com/Store/scripts...rts.asp?ID=1121

Die cut sheet SEMROC ICE-PSP doesn't show a button on the list to add to cart but Carl sent the die cut center rings required to build the mounts. He also included a couple of solid die cut disc without a knock out for a motor mount to use to cap off the HTC-16. No part number for that so I just named it "Disc for HTC-16" in the RockSim file. I made these two files way back when I first bought the parts so can't guarantee they are error free but good enough to run some simulation estimates with and without payloads.


Length: 24.45"
Diameter: 1.64" (ST-16)
Span Diameter: 6.39"
Weight (Single Engine Mount: 2.08 oz
Weight (Dual Engine Mount: 2.10 oz


1x18mm Engine
B4-4_____297'_____Dv 0.10FPS_____36" x 1/8" standard rod
C6-5_____702'_____Dv 0.29FPS_____36" x 1/8" standard rod

2x18mm Engines
B4-4_____610'_____Dv 0.79FPS_____36" x 1/8" standard rod
C6-7_____1,206'____Dv 1.30FPS_____36" x 1/8" standard rod


I posted files for both the single and dual engine mount configurations.

If anyone is interested in this model I can tell you that it's a very satisfying build. I'm very happy with the finished model!
