Yea. It's made for HED, but I'm still trying to figure all of that out. There's a long coupler and a switch band ( both red) that will make the AV bay / NC coupler. But there's only one bulkhead, and it fits perfectly inside the coupler. I don't quite know what to make if it.
That's the 'standard' set up bulkhead for mounting in the coupler to make a traditional nose blow single deploy set up.
Looks like you're missing a few pieces for AV bay. Where'd you get it?
I don't think so. From their web site:
- Nose cone dual deploy capable
I think that means if you WANT to convert it to HED, it's capable, and they've supplied a switch band for that purpose. Would take several av bay caps and a solution to where to tie off the nose cone recovery harness to to complete the HED. Pity that it doesn't come with those extra pieces, can't imagine it would be that much more $$, but then again I have no idea how much money is tied up in the nose cone.
The key is in where to tie off the harness in the nose. I'm having the same problem figuring out how to do a RW/MC Formula 75 HED as well, since it's a composite nose cone tip. Most of the other rockets that I've seen set up for HED have metal nose cone tips, which facilitates bolting in a stainless eye to tie everything off to.
Gonna take a good think on HEDing this one.
I'm thinking that the nose cone is the real gem here! Gonna open up a LOT of fun with making new fiberglass designs. Hopefully they'll offer it as a separate unit, too.
What is the outer diameter of the motor mount? I have an aeropack order to put in shortly.
