The main reason I like the old Estes Bt-60 Sat V is its nostalgic value to me. I built one when I was 12 ( I think) and thought it was cool. Have to agree with you on the clear fins for stability, though. The one on EBay now is WAY out of my price range, tho!

Wes has basically said the Estes BT-60 Saturn V was the inspiration for the Zooch Saturn V... only he wanted to do it better, without the stupid supplementary fins and with greater detail...

It's a nice looking and nice flyer. Dunno about the Estes one-- never had one or seen one built...

Later! OL J R
