https://www.rocketryforum.com/threads/rheintochter-rhine-maiden.62727/There was also a build/design thread here on TRF some years ago about someone building or wanting to build one, might have even been one of our German members.
There was a fellow named Ray King who entered one of these in Sport Scale at NARAM-60. Very interesting model. As I recall the flight didn't go all that well, though. Clustered and staged. Pictures from the November/December 2018 Sport Rocketry.

Your second picture looks like the one at the Udvar-Hazy Center at Dulles airport....
Beautiful!I am working on my own BT80 version of this model... 2x D12-0 engines in Booster and 1x D12-3 engine in sustainer. My model is on the right obviously, my 3D mock-up in the middle, and a photo of prototype on the left.
I would guess... all of it?Still trying to gauge how much weight is needed in nose cone.
Beautiful!

This is great! Would you be willing to share any of your 3-D printed files, I've been wanting to build one of these as well.
OK, this is the model I was thinking of. Has the 2-stage version flown?
Any reduction of no good, stinking, performance robbing nose weight is a good thing!
