New Design: Sky Ace
Here is a new design I have called the Sky Ace. It has an interesting
combination to make this nose cone. I used the BC-1631 nose cone and an BR1016S balsa reducer to make this combination. Both are put together with a 1.5 inch piece of ST-16. I also decided to dress this sci fi design up a bit with a few 1/8 inch Launch Lugs as well. All Semroc parts also. 2nd Annual 12 days Before Christmas Enjoy and Merry Christmas to ALL, JP. Sky Ace (18mm) Launch guide length: 36.0000 In MOTOR.................MAX. ALTITUDE...........DEP. VELOCITY B4-4..................313.81365 Ft.............13.1748 ft/s B6-4..................323.18307 Ft.............9.0471 ft/s C6-5..................804.97047 Ft.............5.4519 ft/s James Pierson NAR# 77907 Last edited by James Pierson : 12-13-2007 at 11:13 PM.

New Design: Exodus Explorer
This design I call the Exodus Explorer. This one was kind of a happy accident. I wanted to add a small section of body tube after the lower paper transition and accidentally added it between them. I liked this different look, so I added some fins between the transitions.

James, your design work just keeps getting better. I wish my rusty brain cells could show half as much creativity. Looking forward to seeing the remaining designs for the series.

New Design: Rogue Dart
Thanks Craig. I am glad you enjoy the designs. A compliment coming from a fellow designer means alot . I am afraid to say that I will save the best for last though .
I am really looking forward to the next Barclone update and the new website look. Keep up the creative work on your end as well. My brain cells couldn't handle all that programing . This design I have called the Rogue Dart. It has tube fins that are tucked in front of the rear transition. This makes for a design that is not very areodynamic and the flight specs show it. I guess its more for looks that preformance. 10 Days Before Christmas Enjoy and Merry Christmas to ALL, JP Rogue Dart (18mm) Launch guide length: 36.0000 In MOTOR.................MAX.

New Design: Cargo Starr Transport Upscale
Thanks Scott, here is an upscale of one of your favorites. If the truth
be known you are the one with the true talent. I thank you for all your good work here at Ye Olde as well, JP. This design is an upscale of the Cargo Starr Tannsport 13mm design. I finally found a combination fo tubes to make this design possible in an upscale. Using three St-7 in a row I found that the ST-225 will surround the tubes alomost perfectly. Looks like the Centuri fellas manys years ago were thinking ahead or could it be Carl's doing? I wonder? 9 Days Before Christmas Enjoy and Merry Christmas to ALL, JP Cargo Starr Transport Upscale (18mm) Launch guide length: 36.0000 In MOTOR.................MAX. ALTITUDE...........DEP.

New Design: Marx Space Ranger
This next design is a 13mm design called the Marx Space Ranger. Its
inspiration was a vintage toy by the Marx company I found on ebay. I am using the ST-3630 body tube for the ring fin. Its a good tube to use as a ring fin as its a large size tube and still somewhat lightwieght. This one should prove to be a fun flyer. Its surely falls in the Schoolyard Sounder catagory with the A10T-3 and maybe the Backyarder with the 1/2A3T-2. 8 Days Before Christmas Enjoy and Merry Christmas to ALL, JP Marx Space Ranger (13mm) Launch guide length: 36.0000 In MOTOR.................MAX.

New Design: Stardust Voyager
This design has sort of a vintage sci-fi look to it. I call it the
Stardust Voyager. It is at about this piont in my designs that I started getting away from the ST-7 tube as a main body tube. After flying many rockets with John at his Dicovery Bay, WA I decided I did not like trying to stuff a 12 inch parachute in those 3/4 inch tubes. This design uses an ST-9 tube but I have noticed that there are not many choices in nose cone with that size. My personal favorite is now the ST-10 tube which solves both of the problems above. 7 Days Before Christmas Enjoy and Merry Christmas to ALL, JP Stardust Voyager (18mm) Launch guide length: 36.0000 In MOTOR.................MAX.

Ya, mine too. But only because it's used on my favorite rocket, the Payloader II. Here's to hoping I can order a Payloader II kit from Semroc by next Christmas with my Christmas discount.
