New Plan -- Cygnus Probe
Another ST-10 design, to show support for Carl and SEMROC!
The tips of the main fins are supposed to have some 1/8" diameter dowels attached, 3.5" long, and pointed at the top. These are supposed to be the "landing legs" of this rocket, but I didn't include any feet. You could use some small circles of thick pressed paper board for this, but I'd leave them bare myself.
Attach them with 1" of the dowel ahead of the leading edge of the tip. The dowel is supposed to extend farther below the trailing edge of the fin tip, about 1.625"
Be sure to epoxy them to the fin tips, or they'll be the first to get knocked off in a bad landing...
Enjoy!
