Right after picking up an Estes Magician the other day, I discovered that the bag included the assembly for the Shuttle Express (guess there was a glitch during the packaging process). I had been considering picking up a parasite glider of some sort, and thought it might be possible to knock up a scratchbuilt using this component. Does anyone know if the Manta II can be used with it, or was this specifically designed for the gliders that came with the Shuttle Express?
 
Not sure if I'm parsing your question correctly. You have a rocket with no gliders or a glider with no rocket?

It was just the tail assembly and fins of the Shuttle Express, including the launch lugs and glider lugs, but no gliders. I know you can purchase the Manta glider separately, so I was going to pick one up.
