I'm still waiting for mine. You think this will affect the value of an original kit on Ebay? I'm putting one up this week.

One of mine showed up yesterday. Check out the huge eye hook ( Eye Bolt )& drilled out BNC.
BMC is also aware of stibilty issues on this one. I was a little surprised at the lack of motor mount just a thrust ring . I never owned the original kit .

Question??? 24mm motor? or can I build a 18 mm motor mount? Laser cut fin tubes Sweet.

I sure hope this hangs in there as a monthly offering, maybe even a subscription type thing. The maiden offering is a sweet kit! Tubes already cut & angled, should be a breeze to build.

It is, but it's a pain to paint. If things work out like I hope, I should have one to fly next QUARK launch.

Nope, just the 2 kits. I kept meaning to call Bill and add 4 or 5 of the foil-lined tubes but never got around to it.
