The length to diameter doesn't look scale. Is it a "sport" scale?"

time to get started on another build! I have always liked the look of the Nike smoke and I figured its about time to build one. it will be 5.5" in diameter with a central 54mm motor with 4 surrounding 29mm motors. the fins will be built based off of John Cocker's method that he used in one of his videos. the open rocket file is below.

No it is definitely not to scale. I've never been a scale type of builder i pretty much designed it to what i thought looked cool. It is quite a bit longer then it should be.
