My Designs
Exporting your design to HTML
is very easy in SpaceCAD - click
the image above to see the
Cuello Largo design in HTML.
Many more interesting designs
can be found at the BARCLONE
site.
Bill Cooke's Virtual Space
This page contains my rocket designs that I have yet to implement or have entered
into design contests such as those sponsored by EMRR. Clicking on the design
drawing will bring up the design as a RockSim or (rarely) SpaceCAD file. If you don't
have RockSim, you can download the demo by clicking here, while SpaceCAD can
be obtained here.

I hope you find my creations interesting... Don't hesitate to provide some feedback!
Cuello Largo RockSim file
Cuello Largo ("Long neck" in Spanish) -
This was my entry into EMRR's Virtual
Contest #6. A middle of the road performer,
it did very well in the altitude event, with the
greatest feet per newton of thrust.
Cuello Largo SpaceCad file
I also tried designing Cuello Largo in
SpaceCad, which could not  create the
"spikes" on the 2nd fin set. Was able to
replicate everything else, though.
Streak-E RockSim file
The Streak-E - A high flyin', 24 mm 2 stage
rocket. RockSim says this puppy can top
2600 feet on a D12/E9 engine combo. Be
prepared to walk a bit to recover this one!
Streak-E SpaceCAD file
I was easily able to reproduce the Streak-E
in SpaceCAD, which says that the D12/E9
combo should yield an apogee of about
2230 feet - 400 feet lower than above.
Go 4th - My entry into EMRR's Virtual
Contest #8. Yet another middle of the road
performer, I actually built this one for the
bonus points - and also because I was
feeling patriotic.
Eisenmann - My entry into EMRR's Virtual
Iron Rocketman Competition. Placing 7 out
of 11, I had a run of bad luck that resulted
in loss of both virtual copies before the
final contest event.
Cetus - My entry into EMRR's "Big and Fat"
Virtual Contest. Possessing the most
cargo space of any of the entries, it placed
8th out of a field of 11.

biweekly newsletter. Click above

tube fins... It's all there.

VCP - A FREE rocket
design program
can be had by
clicking the icon. Not
as good as RockSim
or SpaceCAD, many
rocketeers swear by
this code. I use it to
print fin marking
guides, shrouds,
and other paper stuff.
