RASAero II Fin Cant

[phillycheese254]

Hello,
I am trying to simulate a spin stabilized rocket in RASAero II, but I cannot find any option for fin cant. Does RASAero not support it, or is there some feature that I am missing?

I am trying to simulate a spin stabilized rocket in RASAero II, but I cannot find any option for fin cant. Does RASAero not support it, or is there some feature that I am missing?

Unfortunately, RASAero II does not include fin cant, and does not simulate spinning rockets. There is no fin cant input on RASAero II.

If you're submitting a rocket to the Tripoli Class 3 Rocket Committee with fin cant and spin, we have techniques for analyzing it. I'm planning to document the spinning rocket techniques we use on the Tripoli Class 3 Rocket Committee, but I need to do a concise write-up on the techniques, so I don't have additional details readily available to post here at this time.
