Stackable Rocket Booster Set ====================== Enhance Your Modular Rocket Experience with Stackable Boosters ============================================================= Add-on stackable boosters designed to fit seamlessly into my Modular Rocket. The base kit is a prerequisite, available for download from [www.thingiverse.com/thing:3583502](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3583502). Designed Specifically for Estes Rocket Motors --------------------------------------------- Compatible with either 18mm or 24mm diameter motors. Follow these guidelines to ensure optimal performance: 1. If your rocket features a single engine stage, use B-6, C-6, or D-6 motors. 2. For rockets with one or more booster stages, employ B-0, C-0, or D-0 motors in each booster stage. Use upper stage motors B-7, C-7, or D-7 in the top rocket fin can. Acquire Rocket Motors from Reputable Sources --------------------------------------------- You can purchase Estes rocket motors online or at local model shops. Safety instructions and motor specifications are readily available on the [Estes website](https://estesrockets.com/product-category/engines/). Download the latest [Estes Catalogue](https://estesrockets.com/catalogs/) for a comprehensive chart of rocket motor specs. Fin Configurations ------------------ * Fin_18_booster_18 accommodates five 18mm diameter motors. * Fin_24_booster_18 supports one 24mm diameter motor and four 18mm diameter motors. * Fin_24_booster_24 is designed for five 24mm diameter motors. Boosters Should Be Loose Fit --------------------------- To ensure a clean separation once burned, ensure the boosters are loose in the upper stages. As I lack a safe testing area, I would appreciate it if you could share your test results on Youtube and message me a link to review. Additional Features: Twist Fin-Cans ---------------------------------- Included with this release are twist fin-cans: * Fin_18_twist for 18mm motors * Fin_24_twist for 24mm motors These features provide added stability to your rocket by enabling it to spin. Always verify that the centre of gravity is closer to the nose of the rocket than the centre of pressure. Heavier Nose-Cone Option ------------------------- A heavier nose-cone is included with this release, allowing you to increase its weight by adjusting the infill percentage for improved stability if required.
