Looks terrific

For those that are curious.



Finally had a long enough break to paint and finish assembly of this bird; albeit to the 5’ standard (that’s all I have time for nowadays). All built up it weighs ~116 grams without a motor. Once I rebuild the ork file (yeah... that tee’d me off pretty bad) I’ll post a flight weight and maybe kick it off once before it retires to my wife’s’ classroom.

Thanks all for watching, sorry it took soooooo long

PS, was gonna StickerShock the fuselage, but the paint job is nowhere close to smooth enough... Maybe a clear coat, but doubt it

Nice job!

I like these recent missile rockets from Estes, they remind me of the Centuri Strike Force kits

part Gabriel, part Sea Killer.

I wish the cruise missile was still $7...
