So, does anyone have instructions for the ORIGINAL Sprint rocket? It is one of the few that are missing from the Estes site. I'm also looking for the Astron Falcon (Original, it was a glider). Thanks much!
... I still have some in a box in the basement, but I doubt they are in decent shape or salvageable, I'll have to pull them out and check. ...
One of my favorites. All elliptical and parabolic and dead sexy !

The Sprint XL is still on offer as well:

The Falcon, a fast glide as I recall.

Welcome to the forum ! First time around or a Born Again Rocketeer ?
None of these sites are working including jimz rocket plans. Anyone have information?
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Boxes in the basement from back in the day are very cool, I wish I'd have had the foresight. Pictures please ? (maybe a new thread) FWIW when I came back to the hobby in 2006 I found flying with a group to be very rewarding. You can check the NAR (www.nar.org) and Tripoli (www.tripoli.org) for a club near you and go check them out sometime.

I do like that roll pattern at the top of the body tube contrasting with the yellow nose cone! Enamel or lacquer? (or is that rocket wearing a coat of Future)View attachment 438084Fin decal not too good ...
