Estes 36 D Squared question
I pulled the remains of this kit out of the basement today. I was kind of disappointed in it at the time and cannibalized it for other projects. I still have the oddball transitions and fins, but I'm at a loss as to what tube lengths I'll need to finish the project. Can any of you tell me what lengths of BT-50, BT-60 and BT-70 I'll need to get this thing finished?

It’s odd but the lengths are on the instructions, see attached.

I wish Estes would still include body tube lengths, as well as the familiar body tube name, like BT-60, on kit instructions.
I have not memorized the new stocking numbers for parts, like 030396 for the BT-60.

Alternatively, if instructions/dimensions are not available from JimZ/YORP, John Brohm's Estes body tube reference list is an excellent resource:
2119 36 D Squared 030413 BT-70 10.00" 031681 BT-60 8.00" 030364 BT-50KE (2) 15.00" 031680 BT-70 4.50"

Thank you, gentlemen. I'm shocked that neither option occurred to me, especially since I'm mentioned on John's document.
