A few upscaled classics

All built a few years ago (20 to be precise) when I had time.

Left to right these are:

233 % Estes Sprint, 32.2" long [built for 38 mm motors]

203 % Estes Cherokee, 47.4" long [for 54 mm motors]

135 % Centuri Minimax Jaguar , 30.7" long [another 38 mm job]

Turned the nosecones and boattail from maple. Used mostly PML phenolic tubing. Tried to follow the original contours and paint jobs as closely as I could.

Maybe I will even fly them someday. The Jaguar is my personal favorite from this group.

They all look fantastic! The Sprint is my favorite, if you don't want to fly it then send it to me. I'll be happy to put a motor in it!

You might be happy to put a motor in it, but I'd be delighted to light the motor!
