Gemini Titan II

[ToneDeafJunior]

Just finished a Gemini Titan II - GLV. Looking forward to flying it in the new year. Skins from Accur8 and Gemini Capsule and Engines to fit 18mm motors from KCespedes. Painted toothpicks and dowels. Happy all in all.

Nice - Is that BT80 size?

Accur8 wrap on the capsule as well?

 

[ToneDeafJunior]

Yes. It's the BT-80 tube. I was really pleased with the skins and the quality of the capsule.

Wow, I am impressed by this rocket. The attention to detail is amazing. My grandfather worked on the Gemini and his name was inacribed on the Gemini Monument at the American Space Museum and Space Walk of Fame in Titusville, FL. The Titan II GLV holds a special place in my heart and you did a superb job.

One day I will be attempting to replicate what you did here. I have recently got back in the hobby. I have not touched a model rocket since 1996 when I was thirteen years old. My father (35+ Year at NASA) and I would create, build, and launch them. Now, I have a son and I want to get back into the hobby for him, and secretivly me.

Please keep me/us updated on the flights for this model.

Thanks for the kind words. I thinks the story about your grandfather is awesome. You should be proud.
I just finished a Titan IV and have attached a couple of pictures for you.
