Estes DARC-1 unboxing and shroud trimming tutorial

[James Duffy]

Now that the new DARC-1 kit from Estes is available, here's a peek at the kit contents. This rocket is quite unlike anything our little hobby has seen before, as it is built using a blow molded aeroshroud as the main kit structure.



There's also a brief tutorial on trimming and preparing the aeroshroud, which ideally will prevent some disfiguring finger injuries.

Enjoy,
James

Thanks James! I may have to have a small fleet of DARC-1s - one definitely in X-24 style livery

You made it look easy @James Duffy , as usual.
