Team Hawk Submissions: Replica Delta IV Heavy

[Lemniscate Biscuit]

This is my "1:1" scale replica of the Delta IV Heavy.

Mooncrasher I know you judge replicas. You mind if you check this one out?

Hey it's been a few days.

Same. He'll get there, though. Nice replica, by the way. Way better than mine

Some have considered me good at making replicas. Although, I disagree with this statement.

*Ahem* SLS, constellation, Orion, Delta IV heavy...

Looks like it needs to be shortened overall by one single meter, it's 72m high but ULA says the DIVH is 70.7m high. I'm happy to accept a change to 71m, that would be within the 0.5m margin we allow for "easy" long dimensions.

Booster nosecones are clearly too pointy, shrink their height. And looks like the transition from straight to sloped on your boosters is too high by 1m.

Biggest error is in between the top of the centre booster and the payload bay fairing. That whole section has to be shrunk and moved down, the big second stage tank is too long by about 2m and the whole thing needs to be moved down by a meter so the second stage engine almost touches the orange top of the centre booster.

The white and orange parts of your boosters are skewed, if you care about that. Looks like you need to move the transitions down by 2m (closer to 1m for the top-most transition).

So Mooncrasher , I'm doing the booster color transitions. Do you have a complete image of one of the boosters with the overlay. It would make the process of making it 1:1 much easier and faster. Thanks.

Like that?

Or with some transparency?

Thanks!

I decided to turn the rocket on its side.

It looks so clean... I'm a fan.

But the close side stage separation gives me anxiety haha

Ehh... It's separated by about .125 m
