How do you calculate CP?
For the Ring fin? or a rocket in general?
I believe there's an equivalency relation that will relate a ring fin to a conventional fin set that can be used for calculations.
I haven't seen that, do you have a reference?
In any case, OR doesn't have but Rocksim does.
Hey Bossman, been working on anything lately? Been awhile since we've seen some new files...

Is there anything I can do to help? Got an ok 9to5 so if there are things I can do let me know.

Me? No. other than to make the part plastic and color it a pale blue. Neil_w did I think though.K'Tesh
Have you had any luck simulating clear payload tubing in Open Rocket ?

I have been doing some what if changes with the Maxi Icarus Decals that might lead to an upscale
Nose cone will match decal color with rest of rocket and fins being white
Also the 2 rings around clear payload section will mach decal color
May even go hog wild and add a 4th fin !

Jim,
I just ordered a Wildman 4" Patriot from the BF sale. Do you have an .ork file for this one?
Thanks - Smuggs
Sorry, nope. The only Patriots I have are the sims I did for what is called the Citation Patriot. My sim for the Estes Pro Series Patriot went "Poof" when my HD crapped out this summer.
K Tesh,
Are you storing these on the cloud this time around?
Do you still have the old drive that crashed???
I now have a backup HD to store files on, and yes, I have the old drive still.
Have you tried recovering the data?

There's some free things to try too.
Just about the only thing you shouldn't trust with the cloud is your rockets.Cloud, cloud, cloud, don't risk it even with a back up hard drive.
Jim, I was perusing your Flickr galleries for decals the other day, and was reminded of an inspiring sim.
Did you ever do your own version of the Exocet MM40 B3? The one with the side intakes. And if so, has it survived your drive troubles?
Those files were lost. However, some of the work was preserved in emails, I'll have to search those out. I *might* not be able to share some of that info though as I was working with a vendor.
