Estes SA-2061 Sasha
Another spectacular kit by Estes! Attached are several screen shots and the RockSim simulation files I created for the Estes SA-2061 Sasha. Simulations for both the 2 stage and single stage configurations are attached. I avoided using pods so these simulations should be compatible with Open Rocket software; if someone has time this design looks great with the decals added.

I noticed you have the Estes E12 motors as a selection. Where does one get the files needed to upgrade Rocksim with these motors? I've been using E9 motors, but would love to use the E12 for my simulations.

Thrustcurve.org has the RASP (.eng) files that should work in both RockSim and OpenRocket. Not sure how RockSim does it but in OR you can tell it where to look for the motor data files then the added motors show up in the pick list. |

I just started building the Sasha. I really like the old-school Soviet surface-to-air missile feel of it. I was wondering though - would there be any real impact to the model if the sustainer "wings" and "control fins" were aligned instead of being offset 45-degrees? I wouldn't think so, but you never know.
If they lined up, it would look even more like an SA-2! |

That’s an interesting question. The intuitive answer for me would aligning the fins would lower drag - but not necessarily since this would give you a bit of a split fin style design. |
