Loc Top Gunn

Does anybody have the dimensions & etc. for the Loc Top Gunn?
Or the Rocksim file.
I've searched high & low for anything on this rocket to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Here is a very bleak description of the dimensions. I can ask Vern to get ahold of scott for the dimensions perhaps. Although I won't be at the next meeting...

The upper section a piece of 5.38" loc tube topped off with their 5.38" long nose cone. I heard that the kit is OoP due to no source for the wood transition; 7.5" to 5.5".

These dimensions aren't perfect, but they should be pretty close. I dimensioned a few photos from Vern's site.

5.38" long cone, 21"
5.38" tube: 8"
5.38" to 7.5" transition: 3"
7.5" tube: 60"

Fins (6):
Root: 7.5"
Tip: 4"
Sweep: 0.9"
Span: 5.5"

Attached is a document with the dimensions.

I believe that the Top GUn had 7-54mm motor mounts in it as well.....

That looks about right from the picture.

Yes it did. It was always a 'special order' item. The most impressive flight I saw was 7 J125-15's. :y: This was before altimeters and K250's

Its is a way cool old school cluster rocket (7-54mm). I have one that I got from the original Doc from LOC Ron Schultz. I hope to get around to building it some winter. When I do I am going to use .125 G10 for the fins like Ron did on his one. which was featured on cover of the LOC 1989 catalog.

Used all original LOC parts except for the transition. The only thing close to the original transition is the Performance Rocketry fiberglass.

Enjoy!!
