Hi folks, first time on this forum and posting. I can think of no better place for me to share my build of the rare, expensive-to-acquire, and in my opinion, ultimate scale Estes model. I have also built the Saturn V, Mercury Redstone, Little Joe II (kit#7227 that flies on E30-4), 1:162 Space Shuttle, and the V2 (#3228). I have waiting to build the Star Trek Enterprise and Klingon D-7. I lost the Shuttle glider to a catastrophic nose-down crash when the aileron cord broke internally, but bought another kit 2-years ago and finally rebuilt that glider. Maybe I'll post a picture of that too. Anyway, I think the Saturn 1B is the most beautiful model of the bunch. I tried to upload a PowerPoint of the build, but it was too large. I intend to fly her this Christmas - I made it a family tradition that now the sons and grandchildren enjoy! Let me know what you think.
