Scale Bash Book

NAR Technical Services is again carrying the Peter Alway book:
SCALE BASH

Plans and patterns for 78 models of 29 real rockets.

Originally printed in 1998, this second printing is from this year.

You can order it HERE 


Mr. Alway has done all the research work for you -
Using available 3:1, 4:1 and 5:1 conical nose cones you can build 24 models of different sizes using the standard Estes BT tubing.
Note: The 3:1 shape means the height of the nose cone is three times the base diameter.
The 11 degree conical nose cone is used for six more models.

Original size drawings and colors are included.
On the right are the fin patterns for the Hydac rocket.
On this one, four fin sizes are included for BT-5, BT-20, BT-50 and BT-55 versions.
