Estes Industries Rocket Plans (RockSim Files)

These designs were originally published in the old Estes Model Rocket News newsletter.  For scans of the original newsletter pages, please visit JimZ's rocketry archive site.  (These design files require Apogee's RockSim v5 software)  I have done my best to recreate these designs within RockSim with minimal changes from the original plans.  [Many neat designs are not represented here because they can't be done within the limitations of RockSim.]
