Hi TRF colleagues and especially OpenRocket experts,
Two questions, please:
I copied into OpenRocket a RockSim file for a LOC-VII. I was working along nicely mainly changing cosmetic things like paint color. Suddenly, OR crashed and left me with the file below, which I cannot open. So, I am going to start over. But what happened?
And I also have this question. As an example, let's consider the nosecone. The RS file shows the nosecone from its database as a LOC PNC-7.51, whose calculated mass is 1096 grams to the nearest whole gram. So, I imported into my OR rocket the very same component -- a LOC PNC-7.51 -- and it shows a weight of only 830 grams. This is a substantial weight difference -- and anyway, why is there any difference at all?
Thank you for your assistance.
Stanley
