Rocketariun just released an 18mm BB III. I believe it's slightly larger than the upcoming Estes kit. Available at the Canadian Rocket Store (allrockets.ca). They also have a couple of new BB IV kits, 24mm powered. Beauty, eh? https://www.allrockets.ca/index.php...roducts_id=1567 |

Eagle3 (Buzz Nau) is the person that was updating the header for me as Carl would release new kits. Should I see if we can get him to update it again for us for old times sake?

Wait a minute... WAIT...A...MINUTE... According to the photo, those Alpha plastic parts have a red metallic finish. If so, they could just as easily have a chrome finish. I think you older guys know where I'm going with this.

Trivia:
Estes was sold to Damon in 1969, as most of us know. Motorola sold its TV production (Quasar) to Matsu****a Electric (Panasonic) in 1974. The Estes Quasar appeared in catalogs (Citation series) in 1971 and disappeared in 1985, though it did go through changes along the way.

FWIW, we bought a Motorola Quasar TV around 1971 or 72 - our family's first color TV It had the famous "works in a drawer". All the circuits were solid state - no more tubes except for the picture. Doug .

Fourteen years is a loooong run for a model rocket. And in the latest "eBay silliness" dept: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Es...AAOSw~jpbMVs P And yes, we had a Quasar TV about the same time as well.
