The Pershing 1A is the second release in Boyce Aerospace Hobbies’ BT-80 based scale kit line. The entire kit is 3D printed in high-quality ABS plastic for maximum strength and heat resistance. The Pershing 1A kit includes a three-piece 15” hollow nose cone with 1.2 mm walls and designed so that the required nose weight can be placed at the midpoint for efficient movement of the models center of gravity. It is also joined together at the scale body seam points, so the joints are crisp and clean. Also included are three upper stage steering fins. These are fully modeled, one-piece units that have con-formal bases for easy glue attachment to the body tube (not included). They boast a wall thickness of 1.2 mm and an infill of 5% for strength. There are three first stage fins; plus a bonus spare fin in case of an unexpected rough landing! Again, these are fully modeled, one-piece units with con-formal bases for easy glue attachment to the body tube (not included). Their wall thickness is 1.2 mm with an infill of 5% for strength. Both upper and lower stage cable cover conduits are included as well as the charge retainer. Again, these are printed with con-formal bases for easy attachment to the BT-80 air-frame. You also get two 3/16 inch launch lugs with con-formal bases. These can be substituted for 3D printed rail guides at no extra cost, just send us a note on the order form! And, to finish up the kit you will receive a three-piece motor mount with attachment points, two motor retainers, Kevlar bridle and shock cord and step-by-step assembly instructions. When completed, the Pershing 1A is 27.25 inches tall and weighs in at 6.3 oz without nose weight, paint and parachute.
