Good luck with it. When you get started, let us have a peek every now and then.

George started out boosting the orbiter with a conventional rocket. It gave him plenty of launches to practice with the gliding characteristics of the orbiter. It doesn't have a lot of wing area, so it glides kinda like the real one.....a brick with elevons.

I've never seen his full stack fly, but I've seen the earlier version which flew on a G32.

Isn't the shuttle that is sold by Sheri's Hot Rockets convertable to fly RC?
