Been building nearly everything from Estes kits, and I'd like try some alternatives. So I've been looking at AeroTech.
Requirements/desires: As I usually fly in a park, it needs to work well on "E" or maybe even "D" motors. But certainly usable with "F" or even "G" if I find a big enough field. I'd like to try their plastic Fin-Lok mount, and metal motor retainers. (Seems a few of them don't have these.) Probably 29mm mounts, with adapter for 24mm. As this will be a sort of transitional model for me, I'd like to keep it simple as well. Motor ejection, etc.
The Arreaux or Tomahawk have caught my eye, but I'm wide open to other suggestions. Or perhaps a Cheetah.
I hate to make this a two topic thread, but this is related: I have *always* looked up the assembly instructions before buying anything in the past. I've rejected quite a few Estes kits after reading the instructions because of materials or construction techniques I didn't like. But I can't find the instructions for any of the AeroTech models.
Thoughts?
Hans.
