This is my latest project -- The Macron. It's a BT60 upscale of the Estes Micron (0876). It has a 24mm MMT and flew like a champion on a C11-5. I'll keep running it up the motor food chain to see how it does. I painted it a little different than the original, but only because I didn't have enough black and white paint. :rolleyes:

I've got a 4in "Macron", cept it's based on the very old Centuri Micron, best as I could determine from the rudimentary plans.
Neat looking upscale! Lotas fin, always cool in flight.
 
I've upscaled both the Quark and 220 Swift in 4", and they both fly great. Unfortunately a bonus delay wrecked the Quark, so I might rebuild it 5" this time.
