Default Orbital Transport

The new Orbital Transport is online. We will announce it to everyone later today. There are only 40 serialized copies this time.

The Golden Scout is back as a non-"Sky of Gold" version.

The SLS Brighton is coming soon.

The Tau Zero is close. (Jay... the painting steps are tough!)

Cool! I have my original Estes Orbital Transport (still "in-the-bag" but opened) waiting to be
built, but heck, Carl, I got so many build projects that I'm really backed up here!!

Didn't see that one coming! Carl, did you forget to mention the Xkit Nighthawk? I didn't see it until after I placed my order for the OT. I'll grab one with my next order.

Expect an order soon.

Nice! I ordered the parts a few months ago. Wish I had seen this coming! This should be a popular seller. This one's an all time favorite for me.

Looks like you updated the cone list too? I see quite a few that weren't there the other day.

Craig,

(innocent look) No, I have *no* idea where the BC-1022, 1031, and 1041G came from. Except that they're 137% upscales of Semroc's BC-715, BC-723P, and BC-730P (also known as Centuri PNC-70, -73, and -76).


*What?!?* --Why are you looking at *me?*


(giggling) BC-1041G. "G." *That's* funny.


Cheers,

haha....I wasn't sure exactly what was new, but the list looked a lot longer. I was actually looking at the PNC55PT Pershing II cone. I submitted the rocsim file to Carl moons ago, but it's cool to see it listed now. Main reason I didn't push too hard for it was the fact it needs a fair amount of noseweight towards the tip for stability. Much easier to implement with a paper shroud design. I received other feedback from friends suggesting it should be slightly larger....like BT60 size.
