In addition to the Centuri Phoenix Bird (see:
http://www.ninfinger.org/rockets/no...a/79cen010.html
) and the Enerjet 1340 Sounding Rocket (see:
http://www.oldrocketplans.com/enerj...340/enj1340.pdf
), the Estes Discovery (see:
http://www.ninfinger.org/rockets/ca...6/86estcov.html
and
http://www.ninfinger.org/rockets/ca...87/87est10.html
) and the Estes Challenger II (a 24.25" long, "D"-powered launch vehicle for the AstroCam 110, although it came with the regular BT-56 nose cone, see:
http://www.ninfinger.org/rockets/ca...84/84est54.html
) also used the Phoenix Bird/1340 Sounding Rocket plastic fin unit and nose cone. I don't think (although I'm not 100% sure, having never had them) the Discovery and the Challenger II had payload sections, but simply ejected their nose cones, to which their parachutes and shock cords were tied.
