Hey all you rocket junkies!! Help me out here. I bought this kit on eBay last June. The seller advertised it as an OOP Aardvark kit. If I remember right he had quite a few other similiar kits on auction at the same time. Some of the smaller kits were Aardvark kits with cards inside. This kit had no card or instructions, just the parts.
I was intrigued enough to bid and ended up getting one out of several that I bid on. The one I got had lots of MPR style parts: plywood cr's, big eyebolts, thick-wall 2.6" tube with fin-slots already cut, 36" green nylon chute, at least 12' of heavy-duty shock cord, 1/4" launch lugs, heavy plastic cone, pre-cut TTW 1/8" ply fins and lastly, 29 mm long motor tube.
While it was touted as an OOP kit, since it didn't have any info on it, I decided to build and fly it. I assembled it last summer and am just getting time to start filling and sanding.
Since getting on this forum just a little while ago, I suddenly got the thought that someone might be able to tell me what MFG and model this kit is. I checked out the Aardvark kit specs on https://www.deepsky.i12.com/blackhawk_kit_specs.htm but didn't find any pics or specs that match this.
The finished specs on this are: 2.6" tube and total length is 59.5".
Let me know if you know what this is, please!!
