Estes Red Nova 4.0"/98mm Nose Cone (LOC/Precision) and Fins

thingiverse

This nose cone is an 2.44x upscale of the Estes Red Nova model rocket kit (#7266) that is designed to fit LOC/Precision 4.0 inch/98mm tubing. I have also included upscaled fins that can be used as design guides in order to make them out of stronger materials. The airframe will need to be 43.92 inches (1,115.57mm) long. There are 10 files: 1) Nose cone 2) Nose cone with no shoulder 3) Nose cone solid 4) Nose cone solid with no shoulder 5) Forward fin flat 6) Forward fin supersonic 7) Aft fin flat 8) After fin supersonic 9) End cap 10) End cap with 7.0mm hole that will fit 1/4" (6.35mm) eye bolts. If you are having difficulty printing the supports you can always print the nose cone upside down. Another alternative is to remove the supports or add more. You can always remove supports with Support Blocker for Cura. https://all3dp.com/2/cura-support-blocker-simply-explained/ You can try this plug-in for Cura to add or remove supports. https://all3dp.com/2/cura-custom-supports/ Estes Red Nova BT-60 version. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6073578 Pic of nose cone in airframe tube courtesy of Brian C.
