The Aerobee-Hi we initially planned was based on the ST-8, slightly larger than the original. We are now doing a BT-40 sized version, very similar to the earliest production runs of the MMI Aerobee-Hi in 1957. The original MMI Aerobee-Hi used a maple nose cone that was later changed to the vinyl one. Estes bought all the remaining stock from Harry and sold it as the BT-40G. Vern said that all the BT-40's they ever sold were bought from Harry. Gleda rolled the first BT-30's but never the BT-40's.
Now I can build an Arrow-C, Bug-A-Bye, ...
