With Estes making the 1/200 scale Saturn V and the NASA SLS I was wondering if a 1/200 space Shuttle plastic model could be converted into a flying model to go along with Estes models?
I don't want the shuttle to glide. All I would want is for the model as a whole to go up and come down by parachute.
Would the motor tube have to be offset to accommodate the overhang of the Shuttle?
Who knows, maybe Estes might produce one in the future.
I like the Estes 1/200 flying models and was just wanting to add the shuttle to the collection.
Right now, there are a few different versions of the 1/200 shuttles out there with the version of the James Bond 007 version available.
