I have really fallen in love with the Looks of this Cold War Era Soviet Anti-Aircraft Missile.
I would absolutely enjoy creating a Scale Model with a BT-80 size Sustainer.
Can anyone point me towards some helpful info? I've Googled it and I have Books that give approximate Dimensions and such, but it would be most awesome if someone had gone there before me and was willing to share their Knowledge with me.
This is especially important since I'de like it to be a MPR Model. I was thinking that it could use Single Use 18mm D10 Motors in the Lateral Boosters, then a Single Use 24mm Motor via Airstart for the Sustainer.
I'de also be glad to build it as a Single Stage Rocket first to get a Pattern for all the Parts established.
Heck, I'de be happy for the Specs. of a Scale Static, Non-Flying Model in that size range, since I'm really most concerned about having it hanging from the Cieling to stare at, since it is so cool looking.
Obviously, I'de have to use Sims on a Flying Model like this to ensure Safety, so that goes without saying even though those of you that know my Build Style know that I hate Simming and try to avoid it whenever possible by just sticking to the Kit Instructions and Common Sense Mindsim, like on my TLP Indigo.
I'm confident that I could build it light enough, after practicing lightweight Techniques on the Indigo.
It's not like this would be my very next Build, but I'de like to start Designing it, and possibly start assembly as a Winter Project.
Anyhow, this is an absolutely gorgeous Bird, and I'de love to have one. Any Guidance is most sincerely appreciated.
