Why? Did he bend over? One in a million shot, doc…On the first day of Estes
my true love sent to me:
A Rocket Stuck in a Pear Tree

What happened to your X-15 project?I had to jump on the Star Orbiter... Also grabbed 3" and 4" body tubes... I am planning to upscale a few of the kits I have made. Maybe 3" Bomarc but I also bet that a 3" TB-3 would be popular. I need to get some thicker plywood...
I kept zippering my tube -- maybe I need a shock chord instead of Kevlar but I think I was not getting the ejection timing correct (OR the model was too heavy). I bought some composite engines to play with thrust to weight ratios and was also going to experiment with 3D printed top / bottom fins to see if I can get them lighter than the plywood ones. Got sidetracked on some other builds though...What happened to your X-15 project?
I genuinely laughed out loud at this, well done sir.Other Estes potential Fragrance names.

3-4" bt? What are you planning?I had to jump on the Star Orbiter... Also grabbed 3" and 4" body tubes... I am planning to upscale a few of the kits I have made. Maybe 3" Bomarc but I also bet that a 3" TB-3 would be popular. I need to get some thicker plywood...
I'm guessing it's something no-frills from the "beginner" skill level. If so, I'll put it together, fly it once, then donate it to the local NAR club's "take it/fly it" pile, an enjoyable enough experience for a free rocket. If it's something fancier, then it's an even better deal than what was already an absolute steal (especially for those of us who were able to stack an additional 25% off and get free shipping ).I wonder what the mystery kit will be?

Someone got a Luna...I'm guessing it's something no-frills from the "beginner" skill level.

That's odd. I ordered two of the 4" tubes and it came along with the (I forgot...ordered so much damn rocket stuff lol) other rocket stuff in a large box.My shipment from Estes is coming in two boxes -- one going UPS and one going USPS... I guess the pro-series 3" and 4" tubes needed their own package...
possibly "engines may be shipped separately..." ?My shipment from Estes is coming in two boxes -- one going UPS and one going USPS... I guess the pro-series 3" and 4" tubes needed their own package...
I do not like when they go thudI do not like CATOs and chuffs
I do not like the wind that gusts
I do not like a drift so far
I do not like to be called a BAR
I would like launching anywhere
In weather that is oh so fair
I want clusters that always light
Because we do this for the flight
Like Wolf, I received a 'free' Leaper model.I wonder what the mystery kit will be?
