So I got my father an Estes Screaming Eagle kit, thought to myself, this would be cool but just a little bigger, and maybe 2 - 18mm engines. Thus began another scratch build.
Started off with calipers and some BT-55 tube
Water bottle engine retainers
and the struggle to figure out the nose cone.
Figured out the twin engine pods - both vent into the main tube for parachute deploy
Then started in on the nose cone
turned out pretty cool
Papered everything and started assembly
I am re-thinking the missiles - the first try was with stuff I had and they are a bit too big. oh well, another trip to the hobby store
