This is a flying model rocket I designed in solidworks modeled from the brilliant TV accurate designer Lance Walton (his design is a 3d model but not a printable STL).
You will need to make your own motor mount as it depends on what size you decide to print your model. I scaled mine to the maximum size my Ender 5 Plus could handle, as such I ended up with a rocket that was over 17 inches tall...
I scaled it to accept a D or E engine size which is probably what you will need even if you print it with PolyPro like I did. I included a 24mm thread and retaining screw which should slide over a 24mm (E or D size) Estes Tube...(I apologize to the artist who made these, I could no longer find them on thingiverse) you can then make the retaining rings between the tube and the body depending on the size that you print at.
Fill the nosecone with as much clay and lead shot as required to move your center of gravity ahead of your centerpoint for launch...this will also vary depending o
