Since I've done an Estes Interceptor E conversion to RC RG, and I'm working on a 4" upscale, I found out that I could get the 1250 original interceptor from amazon for $21.95 delivered, so I thought I'd try to do a mini R/C RG version on that as well. I've got my wings and fins cut out of 6mm depron, and done the mass balancing sims and CG calculation. Right now it looks like it will work, remains to be seen how much the cone weighs and whether I will need the tail cone for balance or not and whether I'll do foam wingtip pods or use the original kit plastic items, it all depends on the weight overall.
Also found my original picture of my Interceptor E conversion which did use the tail cone but not the tip pods...that's what I eventually kitted but using the Cosmic Interceptor kits they were closing out for a while....
