Parallel-Staging Hardware Suite
The latest thing I've been working on is developing 3d models of hardware suite for parallel-staged rocketry projects that includes an offset nose cone and its end cap. These are specifically designed for BT-70 (sustainer) and BT-50 (strap-on boosters). I also came up with second version of the base mounting booster hardware.
I am also adding in a symmetrical nose cone (for BT-50, also) similar to those on the Delta II and III GEM solid rocket boosters that you can use instead of the canted one. I'm also including in the hardware suite a couple of different simulated nozzles like the ones you see on the same GEM SRBs, but they are not to scale. You can add them to the boosters while the rocket is on display.
I plant to print them on my resin printer and see how they all fit together. I'll probably post the files on Thingiverse by the end of the week.
