Purchased built and flown both. Love where your kits are at now!!!!
Also built the new Goblin twice and flown it once, First one landed up in a live oak thanks to a unexpected wind at launch 😒But hey after 2 months still looks good in the tree.
Also just got the new shuttle.
expedition was a blast to build . Nike smoke flew awesome on all 3 flights so far

Neglected to mention I have a couple of the new Comanche 3s. John, is there any chance of Estes producing a "throwback" decal set for those of us who might like to finish it old school?

Sorry but the answer to that would be NO. I'm sure an after market vendor would be more then happy to sale you the older style decal set.

No worries. I was really happy to see the kit reintroduced as staging and scale models are my favorite areas of rocketry.

I've got one Star Orbiter almost completed, and two more I may build during April. Since we cannot fly in Denver or Northern Colorado due to fire bans, I'm hoping to burn some of the 29mm BP motors in this rocket at NSL 2017.

May try to get one of my BT-60 Honest Johns done for NSL also.

I RELISH in the fact that local Fire Departments in Michigan cannot issue Fireworks/Rocketry bans around holidays due to the revision of Michigan Fireworks law.
It can be dry as a tinderbox and it is left up to the INDIVIDUAL if they want to use products classified as fireworks.
