Since this kit is no longer available wanted to scratch build it, but have no clue how to get around the pods. Any suggestions?
I dunno, the pods are mainly just two nose cones, a piece of BT, and a couple of small fins. You'll need to get the dimensions, and getting the two nose cone shapes right could be tricky, but seems doable. The front one seems pretty close to ogive and the rear one looks like a conic with a rounded off tip. Just skip the dimples in the rear cone, maybe use some decals to simulate them.
It just looks wrong.
I have 2 of the Estes kits and I'd be willing to sell one. I can get it out of storage and check the price-tag if you're interested.
Nothing showed up in personal messages but no matter. I'll do it this evening as I am away from home until then.I sent you a PM
