Looking for TLP Perseus and Sidewinder kits if anyone has one in their stash they'd like to get rid of
 
If you cannot get a hold of those kits, you may want to also consider building from the plan packs. Uncle Mike's still has the TLP Sidewinder and Perseus plan packs @ $12 each. Parts are standard, available through most rocketry vendors, and the plans have all the shroud and fin templates you need, as well as tube dimensions and assembly instructions. I built an Alarm, Sidewinder, and ASM using these plan packs after the kits went OOP.

I had considered the plan packs. I might end up with those if I can’t find the kits
 
I tried adding some kits to my cart from them but the only two he has left are the Hellfire and Hawk missiles. I was tempted on getting the Hellfire though.

i have 2 Launch Pad 2.6'' Alarm kits in Canada .... 1 is as supplied / Estes type tubes ( + an E upgrade and 3/32 Basewood fin stock ) the other is my version of a 2.6 ''ALARM with a 29mm upgrade with balsa tailcone / 1/8 '' Basewood and Aerotech type tubes / Nose cone and a baffle .... both unbuilt .
 
I’m intrigued by the Alarm after looking it up. Very long and skinny rocket

I thought the Sidewinder had little round things on the end of the aft fins

Haven't finished all the small details yet on that one. Rolleron and rolleron brackets, fin gussets, and a few other fiddly bits.

Tried to upload a scan of the finishing details page from the plan packs, file is too big. So uploaded a pic of the page instead. It will give you an idea of the detail in the plan pack.

I would still email him,
cause if he's selling out I'm sure there is an up to date products list of stuff that's not on website.

If you try to add it to your cart and it says unavailable, he's probably sold out. Why would he keep some off the website if he's trying to sell it all?
 
cause it hasn't been updated or maintained for awhile,,,,, A long while.
