Pegasus XL... A Scratch Build

The Pegasus XL is such a great design. It's launched from the belly of a jet and carries satellites into space. Not a new concept... but a very cool concept.

This version is based on a BT/C-204 body, has a 29mm motor, and a rear eject spool. 

 

 

 

 

             

 

2026-07-07 How about a two stager.... I mean the real thing is a two stager.

Used some canted fins on the rear of the sustainer, to attempt some stability of the 2nd stage... then using a Quick Fuse in the 2nd stage to light the BP motor from the composite motor.​

​

Those second stage fins in the simulation aren't really there in the actual model... they are used to make that stage stable in the simulation.​
