BT60 Bad Ass Fin can & BT50 Baffle

thingiverse

<h1>BT60 Bad Ass Fincan</h1> I combined the simplicity of a Big Bertha style fin can with the tapered tail of a V2 to create the BAF. You can print this design without supports, and its fins feature internal framing that provides extra strength. The fins are designed to accommodate an Estes 24mm (BT50) tube, which can be secured using paperclips inserted through holes in the nozzle. This allows for a motor retention system, at least according to my theory. The BT50 to BT60 baffle redirects ejection charges effectively, protecting plastic parachutes from damage. However, including steel wool in the design would provide additional cooling of gases, much like Aerotech's approach. I haven't test flown these fin cans yet, but I'd love to see your results!
