Default Carded Downscale Estes Patriot

Here's a new downscale -

The Classic Estes PATRIOT #0652

The two page PDF is hosted at Wayne Hill's Rocketry Blog at:
http://rocketry.wordpress.com/ultima...artial-builds/

Scroll down to the bottom for all my downscales.
This one is BT-20 based standing 11 5/8" tall.
The body wrap and three ply fins are printed, no painting is needed except for the BNC-20AH nose cone available from Semroc.

I built mine with a 13mm engine mount and streamer recovery.
This morning's first flight was with a 1/2A3-2t engine. 18mm engines and parachute recovery is another option.

An ornate, stable and classic flyer - just smaller.
