Holy Teaser Batman!! Riddle me this: Can the Tower graphics on the inside of the box be used as a display stand? Recommended motors?? |

This is the one I will be flying come the 50th Anniversary. Finally a good size Saturn V. Not too big and not too small. Hopely it can take a hard landing.
My big question is will the F-1 engines stay connected for flight? I hope so. I wonder what the price is going to be? |

I consider a "good" sized Saturn V the Sirius, Apogee, and Polecat Aerospace kits.
1/100 scale 29mm powered is barely adequate.

No, the F1 engines are part of the display stand for when you are not flying the model. Quote:
I guess it could be used for a display stand . Quote:
A C6-3 would be the only Estes motor that can be used at this time. A 18mm composite D would be real nice. |

Just a little bit bigger than the Dr. Zooch “ant scale” (approximately 1/235) of which I have three versions to build so I’m not sure I’m going to be watching and waiting like I did for the Estes #1969 kit but I certainly won’t turn my nose up at a good flying RTF Saturn V if the price is reasonable.
