I found some more classic parts while digging in the attic with my little brown recluse buddies.
On the left is a nosecone and transition from an Estes Nomad. Hmmm...I could build a Seros or Nomad, but I'd have to scratch together a fin can replacement.
Three Akela-1 nosecones (AKA Centuri PNC-76). I might build a couple of alternate fin and paint versions of the Akela-1. :cool:
Bottom right is the payload section from an old Astron Apogee II. Could I call it a repair job or are you guys gonna make me call it a clone if I rebuild the sustainer and booster? :D
I have no clue what the unpainted nosecones and transition went with. I've never bought a Designer's Special, nor do I rembember buying any extra nosecones. A mysterious origin, they are. :confused:
