Is it a clone? No, a scratch? No... It is what the original kit should have been, IMHO.
Based on a thread on Yahoo's Old Rockets, I have redesigned the ESTES Nike X into a 18mm 2 stage rocket.
To obtain stable flight on the sustainer, I had to ever so slightly enlarge the middle set of fins. You will not even notice!
I started to build this baby tonight. I have gathered all of the parts, and cut the tubes and fins. Assembly starts tomorrow!!
