Very cool!

How does motor retention work for these?

Aargh, I just took my trusty 25 year old Estes Bullpup to my storage unit! Hasn't been flown since the last time I was at Argonia, in 2002 or 2003, I think?

I did, however, recently manage to track down a TLP Hellfire and a Centuri Bulldog, which I plan to build at some point soon. The Hellfire doesn't even have a plan pack as far as I can tell. I may go ahead and scan those to let people clone their own here shortly.



Recently found out that SBR did a Hellfire and man, I want to track that down. I love the look of the Hellfire.

hehe, I just ordered these, and yes, it was because of the Hellfire.

I love the classic. The bulldog is awesome.

I'm hoping to one day experiment with a bt-80 upscale using a 3d-printed nose cone. I think erockets stopped making them. Came across the parts for a BT-70 clone boxed up in my storage unit today, though, alongside two balsa nose cones for an estes exocet clone (I had one in my cart at Launch lab!! And someone got it!! one day I will find an original!).

Wow, it seems like most of my rockets have a missile and/or military looking...

Here are several of them:

Crazy hypersonic glider thing. Twin 13mm booster and glider. Has yet to fly, but it is ready to go...


Snark inspired scratch build, 13mm mount. Flies nice and straight with a very slow roll.


Estes Bullpup with lots of little surface details added and an AGM-83 Bulldog paint scheme.


LOC4" Nike X "scaled out" to look more like a Spartan missile...


Scale Skybolt missile. 13mm motors. Pretty much teleports on an A10!


LOC Forte with an added av-bay and a "surplus military missile becomes sounding rocket" paint job.


Four inch scratch-built with "surplus military missile becomes...", well, you know.


1.6" fiberglass Madcow Black Brant with a fin-job and a Navy target drone scheme.


Another crazy scratch-built glider. Flies great on a C6-3, haven't tried it with motors in the boosters yet...


Sprint missile.


Scratch Nike Ajax-ish thing.

Ironically, the Estes transition makes a better Bulldog tailcone than it does Bullpup tailcone.

I'm loving these in particular, the hypersonic crewed spaceplanes and that beaut of a Snark-y model, too cool.
