Newly acquired info prompts a new build - more accurate, more detail, and more options. (yes, dart launchers and 'instant replay' sensor included).

First a benchmark of prior versions :

Revisiting 'off the shelf' components, the ZF1 is known to use the Estes Bullpup model rocket. Though, it is accurate to use the supplied cardboard tube (images from recent Prop Auctions verify the use of the paper tube), screenshots during the demonstration show a machined body tube with a distinctive taper before the nose cone.

Aluminum 6061-T6 1.375" x 0.049" x 1.277" is a perfect fit for the OEM nose cone, and will only require milling the taper for a screen accurate body tube.

I have 3d modeled all my findings and have started machining my 3d model. I'm interested in helping the community with results
