Creating a Model of a Falling CEV

[schemp98]

Hello,

I originally posted this in another category, but think this would be a better place for it...


I need to create a simple model of a CEV falling straight down (with some neglible initial horizontal velocity)

I already have a 'skeleton' of a model up and running. Basically, I just need to find physical characteristics such as weight, surface area w/ and w/o parachutes open, and forces of the thruster (approximations are fine).

Any ideas on where I could easily find this stuff? Thanks

Shaun
