I am building a D-Region Tomahawk over in the scale forum and need help with figuring out how to do the nose cone/payload bay. I recently bought a Jolly Logic altimeter and I would like to put it in there so that A) no worries about tangling with the JLCR and B) need nose weight.
Here is what it looks like now. At 10.5 inches it's pretty long. The "payload" length is 4.75 inches.
I don't really have much experience with payload bays or altimeters. I had an JL altimeter once before. I attached it to the nose cone, launched it and when I recovered the rocket, the altimeter was gone to never be found. I'd like to do better this time
I did find this picture of a mod someone did in their build but I really don't understand what I am looking at.
Can somebody help me with understanding this bay or perhaps something else entirely? I'm open to ideas
Thank you,
-Bob
