I know this type of post has probably been done in recent history but thought I would start a new one.

I have been really been into Estes up scales/ goonies/ odd rocks/ unique stuff, whatever you want to call them. And thought I would put them in one post to share and that everyone could post theirs as well.

May create new ideas or new projects.IMG_2354.jpg

Now, if I posted my oddrocs, it would just be embarrassing. To me, not you. I remember your article about your 3 certs in one day. Man does time fly.

1st up, the oddest rocket I ever built. I call it UFTYES / yooft' yes. The 2nd is Arapagoony. A goony version of the Arapahoe E. Looked cute. Flew like crap. Trashed it on the maiden flight. Sorry, no video on that one.

Really cool looks like a Big Bertha and Alpha had a baby or two I guess since it is a two stage

Probably my strangest is my "That's Nuts"

Not sure if you would consider this as an odd roc, but I am also rather pleased with my "Eye Catching" rocket

I have another one I call Tikk Takk. It's the one on the left. Imagine a giant carpet/brass tack turned pointy side up. The ring poses as the head. Don't step on it...:cyclops:
