Proper Big Daddy Rocksim

[ShadowSpire48]

After a big ordeal with some incorrect decals, I noticed the rocksim file of the Estes Big Daddy on both RocketReviews & Apogee are incorrect on the fin shape. Apogee's is closer but still wrong. I rebuilt a proper sim file with mine but I do not have a RocketReviews account (and do not care to make one) so if anyone has one, please replace the incorrect one with this one.

Just realized how stylin' it would be to make the Old School decal stripes taper to a point on the NC.

I pranged mine, and replaced the original nosecone with one from BMS. I think it's part # PNC300K. It's a longer nosecone. I think it looks better.

I don't have weights loaded in my spreadsheet yet, but this is the difference in length. The BMS cone is heavier. Both are HIPS, so no issue with paint adhesion.
