Gee, thanks guys! I don't have RockSim, so I appreciate you pulling together these files.

Not to be nitpicky, but Craig, you did ask me to note anything that I see that's different from the real bird. I'm out of town for the week, so I'm working from memory here...

1 - Wingtip side missile rails are missing.
2 - Not sure if you noticed that main wings are 1/8" and the rest of the fins are 3/32" thick
3 - The rear horizontal stabilizers aren't that far aft. The rear tip of the fin is parallel with the end of the body tube, not the rear of the root edge. Overall is about 1/2" forward from where you have it now.
4 - Same thing on the lower vertical stabs. Extend the rear edge of the upper stab down to find the point. It's around 1/4" forward.
5 - I don't know the total mass, but I did happen to measure the PNC-55IR nose cone, and it's 15 grams. There's no additional clay weight inside.

Later,
EV
