I am trying to design an upscale of the Estes Astron Sprint XL. And, I really want it to be as scale as it can which would require an elliptical nose cone. At 2X size, it would be a 3" nose cone diameter with about an 11" length. But, I can't find any manufactured elliptical nose cone that size.
Is a 3D printed one a good option? I have bought some 3d printed parts for other rockets (never a nose cone) and they were pretty rough in texture. Is that typical for 3D printed items?
