New wRASP Downloads

This version of wRASP is v2.1- (minus) which was released in June of 1998. Like v2.0, it is compiled as a 16-bit application for Windows 3.1 and requires a minimum of an 80386 processor. The program file and data files may be downloaded and placed in the wRASP directory.

v2.1 contains a dialog page that handles the NAR tracking equations in the "Pink Book".

The Windows 95 full installation uses InstallShield Express and sets the registry keys to associate a *.RSP file with wRASP. File association can be performed manually in Win3.1 using the Program Manager. File association can be performed manually in Win95 by double clicking the file and using the "Open With" dialog.

wRASP requires two Borland support libraries (BC520RTL.DLL and BWCC.DLL) to be placed in your C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory. These are included in the InstallShield installations and placed in the correct location.

A new data file set is included. The files are:

RASP.ENG - The normal motor data file with new additions (not everything, though)
NAR_0298.ENG - A motor data file containing only NAR certified motors from their data package that is available through NARTS. Thrust curves are from the typical time-thrust graphs.
ROCKET.DAT - the rocket kit database with some new additions.
VENDOR.DAT - the list of manufacturers used in the*.ENG and ROCKET.DAT files.

The motor data input routine was improved to allow more thrust data points per motor. Previous versions (1.61, v2.1BW, and v2.0) were limited to 64 points per motor. Before that (DOS RASP89 and wRASP v1.6 and earlier), curves were limited to 32 points per motor. Some of the motors in the NAR_0298.ENG file exceeded the 64 point limit (i.e. Aerotech E11).
