The problem is nose cones and the overall weight. Most of my other upscales require custom 3D printed nose cones that have to be extremely light and they're still right on the edge of what I consider maximum lift off weight so if someone does something different they're going to come out too heavy. I designed this one with the bt80 tubing so that would have give some margin for some heavy-handedness, I don't want to have to stock 4-in tubing either and 3 in is generally a little bit heavier than I like as well. The foam and the rest of the parts would work for a 4-in orbital transport glider like I made but again you need to source a nose cone.
