Would love to get a clone of that kit. TMRK also made a Pegasus but it was built up balsa and paper .I am looking for instructions and parts. Please post photos of the Pegasus kit if you decide to build it.

Boy....does that bring back memories! I always regretted not picking this kit up as well as the Quad-Pod. I still have the machbuster and check six in my built kit collection to this day. I have flown the Check-6 a couple of times but have not been willing to risk my machbuster!For those who are interested, this is most of what a Rocket Vision Pegasus kit looks like.
I'm missing a few parts, as well as the decals.

I might have to take a shot at cloning this one. I think that one might be able to re-create that wing out of balsa (or a couple of lightweight 3d printed units joined together).
For some of those parts a resin printer would be better than a filament printer. Much better at things like leading edges and sharp transitions. How big are those fins? If someone has an STL file (of other CAD file) for them I would be willing to try one in a resin printer to see how it turns out.
That's why I'd want to try them with a resin printer vs a filament printer. Resin printers can produce very fine details, far more so than a filament based printer. And with the right resin the parts can be very strong.Between bonding and sharp points, 3D printing is going to require a printer that's very dialed in to produce a nice result.

Hence my question on the fin size. From the photo it’s really hard to get a feel for scale. The Mars has a build size of 4.53in(L) x 2.56in(W) x 5.9in(H). Most parts are printed at an angle which affects size a bit.The limit to a resin printer is size vs cost.
