Estes Mean Machine.

[Shade]

This is actually my son's build.

So far MM is complete and he got the last 2 fins on tonight.

I think in the future we are going to make a good team, I like
building them and he likes painting them. I'll bet dollars to
donuts this one is not going to be black when he is done.

He looks as proud as his dad sounds. Good for both of you!!

Don't paint it black or any dark color, because it will warp in the sun. The mean machine was one of my favorite rockets until the parachute stripped in January- ouch.

What size motor mount is it?

What size motor mount is it?

Stock comes with a 24mm.

So...AT F motors


My little cousin just bought one, we built it together.

We modified it a bit. We put the fins all the way at the bottom of the tube, so it could stand by it's self.

What size motor mount is it?

We went stock on it so we can run Estes E motors and similar sized ones.

Same size as an estes E9, but they are F motors.

and these are the same size as a D12 or C11,
but they are E motors.

My dad had a Mean Machine I think like 14 years ago. The Mean Machine is 6 1/2 feet.:bang: And why does it fly on F24`s?:confused2: Go onto this website: www. Hobbylinc.com.:roll:

It flies on F24s because I want it to

It also flies well on E9-6s and E18s.
