I was inspired by Tarasdad's QCC build so I pulled the trigger on one at Hobby Lobby. This is a nice quality kit from from Estes.
12 bucks after the 40% discount...not bad!
I am doing a couple of mods:
Since Estes will be releasing the 24mm quick change mount at the end of Q1, I am going to wait to see if I can incorporate it into the tailcone to make it a one piece, screw on retainer.
I want to be able to fly D and E BP motors as well as an Aerotech 24mm RMS.

I am doing a couple of mods:
- Exhaust baffle w/ Kevlar/1/4" Elastic shock cord in place of the coupler
- Modified motor mount
