Exclamation Upscale Design -- SLS Nova

From 2007, this was a design using ST-10, and needed CPT-10 for the payload section. Needless to say, we're still waiting for a good source of CPT-10, and unless we get a source for CPT-16, I don't expect this one to get any, either...

The styling is similar to the Nomad, but uses a set of five fins just to be different.

A new NC, the BC-1684, is needed. This is a 1.6X upscale of the BC-1052.

Length: 35.10"
Diameter: 1.64" (ST-16)
Fin Span: 5.64"
Weight: 3.42 oz


E12-6......1258'......Dv 20 FPS......Requires 33" of a 48" x 1/4" rod......Avg of six runs


Share and Enjoy!

Fluorescent tube protector is a suitable standin for PST-60, so it suffices for CPT-16 as well.

The Delta Syx from Red River Rocketry has a clear payload section which is slightly larger than an ST-10 in size. I never asked John where he gets them.

I know -- I've got an 8' length in my stash. Problem is, depending on where you get it, it's not the same diameter. It varies from store-to-store (varies by distributor).

We got hold of some ~1" stuff a few years ago. It's very close to BT-50. The problem with this stuff is that the tubes are a little bowed. For short lengths - eg, a 5" payload section - it's not a factor, but when you look at one of the 36" long sections, it's quite clear they're not straight.

I bought some in BT-50 and BT-20 sizes from a local pet shop. It's sold as "uplift tubes" for under-gravel filters. Haven't looked in quite some time, but the stuff is much thicker than "normal" payload tubing. Worked well, though...
