Ok..I have three projects on the slate. The first will be the Probe upscale, next I plan to convert the third stage and CM of a 1/48 scale Sat-V paper model to flight capability and third, after all the replies to the launch pad thread, I have reevaluated my current launch pad situation. It was constructed for use on picnic tables...(readily available) but I think planning for the lack of availability would be prudent. That will come later. Now on to the build.
Likeing the Probe so much I have to make it larger so starting with a paper towel tube I cut down to ten inches. I built the engine mount the same as the Wizzard, by rolling a piece of card stock tightly around a D engine then cutting the mounting disc's. For the engine block I cut a piece off a used D engine and glued it in.
