Vintage Estes quality control
 

I've wanted an Estes Python since I got back into the hobby in 2001. http://www.rocketreviews.com/python...-1997-2000.html After many Ebay failures I finally won one last week. I was pumped. It arrived yesterday, so I unboxed it tonight at work. All bagged up inside and everything is in great shape. :cool:
But, wait! Where's the motor tube? :confused:
Nope. No motor tube. This poor kit has been sitting around without a means of propulsion for 15-18 years. Good thing I have a pile of scrap BT-50 laying around. ;)

Well then you can have it take E9/E12s as well as D12s if you have to supply your own motor mount.....

:cool: I may have also thought of that. ;)

Haven't seen any ever listed on eBay, may I ask what U paid. Have 4-5 of them.
Found 3 new old stock online at Midwest hobby shop a few years back.
Thanks :)

:o I don't remember, but I think around $25. It's still sitting in the box that it came in. I barely got started and got distracted. They turn up every now and then, but not very often.
