Patriot Side Conduits

[AlexBruccoleri]

Hi, Does anyone have a scale drawing of the conduits on the side of the Patriot? I crashed my dad's old NCR Patriot and built him a new one from Wildman. It is a nice fiberglass rocket and I wanted to make it look authentic. Thanks, Alex

Best I could find is this data sheet from the old Estes Pro Series Patriot.

Some nice pictures in this old thread.

Google this and select images. There is a lot of detailed information.

Yes. Still didn't see a scale drawing. Maybe I missed it.

I am sure I found this in a thread here somewhere:

Hot damn, I sure did miss it. Looks like authentic spy stuff. Thanks Titan II ... and David.

Its a Minakov drawing, one of a number he did of U.S. and Russian missles. I have heard there are "inconsistencies" on some of the drawings as far as measurements are concerned, but they are awesome for those of us who like scale modeling.

I measured them on my NCR Patriot (I am assuming your is the 4" model). Conduits are 1/4" thick, 1" wide. One side is 32 1/4" long, the other 32 5/8" long. I don't know if that is the true scale or I bolloxed up the build somehow (it was my first MPR build circa 2009). The taper at the top of the conduits is from the top to 1/2 " down the conduit. Attached is pic of my bird (somewhat the worse for wear, major repairs twice); it's been a great flier. I put rail buttons on it about three years ago and it's never flown better. I also attached the original NCR build instructions.
