Is this the plan you're looking for?

It was an Estes contest winner. I also think I remember someone who did a 2x or 3x upscale that used a cluster. It used standard cardboard for the wing. I think the builder called it the Triple Eagle. I'll...
Not sure how many folks here view the Barclone design threads over on YORF.
Here is my Deuce inspired take on a Estes classic design that I originally developed in Rocksim v8 and recently updated taking advantage of some of the new features in version 9 of the software.
I ordered all the...
Looks like a shorter version of the old Estes Prowler.
I built my Prowler removing one of the 18" tubes making it about 3 feet in length.
It was a great performer and one of my favorite rockets to fly!
Good luck with your build!
Maybe the Centuri Design Contest X-Wing plan from 1977 would work for those not fond of all the plastic in the Estes kits. This would probably be a cool upscale too!

Maybe this Quicktime 3D model will help answer some of the questions posted. It is a Shrox original but I can't remember where I found it on the Net.

That's gotta be the biggest "paper" rocket ever! Very cool, Jim!
What do you think it would take to launch it proper?

I received my decals today from Fred. Simply amazing! They're for an upscale project I'm planning. They are of excellent quality. I received them very quickly even with the printer problems Fred experienced.
Just wanted to say thanks for outstanding customer service!!
Thanks,

Got mine today! #11
Scott, all I can say is this is an incredible kit. The packaging and delivery of the kit was first class. Thanks!
Now I have a problem! It's my first numbered kit. Do I build or save? I'm more of a build'em and fly'em person rather than a collector, but #11, it's...
Gerbs,
I believe I've seen this on a box that I repaired for a friend of mine. If I remember correctly I had to uninstall and then reinstall MS Money on that PC. Do a search on:
Microsoft Knowledge Base
I believe that's where I found the information regarding this problem. I'll...
Very cool!
