Hi again!
I've got someone who has one of the original BBZ, but he's out in a desert right now, and won't be back for a while. So, I'm looking to see if someone has the answer to this at hand.
I'm looking for the fin dimensions (measured please) of the Estes Blue Bird Zero. I don't know the fin thickness, nor the overall size/shape of the fins. JimZ's site appears to be the only one with a "fin template" but it looks like it was drawn from an assembled model. I'm hoping to score a scan of the fins (loose or sill in the balsa matrix they came in) with a ruler (or two).
I remember that Mike Dorffler said that the rocket was closely based on the DRM, but the part number of the balsa sheet doesn't match with the part numbers I've seen.
Thanks!
Jim
