Someone sent me these pictures of an Ikaros flare rocket, maybe someone here will find them useful. I'm told the launch tube is 278mm long, so you can probably scale off that in Photoshop or whatever.

1. Launch tube, rocket, and the tube end cap.
2. & 3. Instructions on the launch tube.
4. The rear end of the rocket showing the nozzle and vents.
5. The nozzle end, with one main nozzle and (I guess) 3 angled nozzles to spin-stabilise it.

Couple more to come...

6. The parachute and flare charge, connected by a chain.
7. The nose end of the rocket.

Cheers,
Phil
