Hi Rktflyer,


Yeah, I have the RB77 and I can wing it with a Centuri ST5, so just the tube lengths and fin patterns would help. I may have the NC's tucked away somewhere. Did the transition come pre-cut, or did the builder have to cut it down?
My last order to CMR included the Pirate and an extra payload section, along w/a few other parts, but came back with a "Sorry, we are unable to fulfill your order at this time" note. That was the the end of CMR...


Thanks for what ever you can provide.


Must have been interesting working for Howard; were you there when he shut down?
