3D model description

This is a 3D model of the Estes PNC-50CA nose cone that is designed to fit Estes BT-50 airframe tubing.

There are two major versions of this nose cone to download with variants of each

Version one is the nose cone that is close to the original as I can design it. There are three variants with one, three, and four bulges.

Version two has the bulges featured more prominently. The number of bulges runs from one to four.

The other file is the end cap which has a 3mm hole in it to allow you to add a screw eye or eye bolt.

Note: On 7SEP2020 A new file was added to for a cockpit added to the nose cone that gives it similarity to Estes F-61 Starfighter kit nose cone.

Estes kits that use this nose cone:
Kit# 1281, Alien invader
Kit# 1343, Torellian Invader
Kit# 1358, F-61 Star Fighter
Kit# 1383, Hyperion
Kit# 7260, Protostar (used on the fins)

Many thanks to DavidQ at Ye Olde Rocket Forum for his help getting the dimensions of this nose cone for me.
