Received the following email text from Estes this afternoon. Others I am sure received it also.


PRO SERIES SNEEK PEEK

We are so excited to announce the Summer of Pro Series! We will have a bunch of products coming out this summer to support 29mm fans. Stay tuned because we are kicking it off next week with a great one! Get ready to launch this rocket and others this summer by grabbing some Estes engines below.

=========================


No actual Pro Series rockets were mentioned, new or old, but sounds like some new ones will be released.

Anyone know?

Sounds like someone wants to sell some 29mm engines. I’m guessing we’ll see the So Long available next week.

That's the one I want to get.

The So Long is on the Estes site now

Looks like the streamers are plastic surveyor’s tape, which was probably inevitable but still disappointing but you do appear to get a nice looking decal set.

I get a 404 error now.

I just checked the 'coming soon' category at AC Supply (as well as the PS II listings) and none of those show (yet).

Anyone have any idea how the stages of the Too Long are coupled? Are the motors taped together?

The picture on the Estes company FB page shows the So Long in silhouette so I’d guess that’s our first release.

I plan to get that Great Goblin and Black Brant XII as soon as available.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !
Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.

Yeah, the Black Brant looks like a decent scale kit. I'd like to see a few more details about it, but it certainly looks interesting.
