Steve,

Thanks! I appreciate the positives, and I understand the negatives, too.

I’ll post some detail pictures. I can also supply the fin pattern. The toughest part will be the nose cone. This one I turned in basswood on my lathe. But I can provide the dimensions. I should still have a template.

I recall an older thread were you posted der Red Saturn. If you do post patterns and pics, please enshrine the good stuff in its own thread. A build like that deserves its own thread.

Right before the Estes customer service folks took off for a break around the holidays - before the new catalog came out - DRM was temporarily out of stock and was inadvertently deleted from the website. This lead to a great hue and cry from Estes fandom

All is well now, DRM is cataloged and readily available.

Thanks, I will. I think I may have posted info on it originally in a reply to another post.
