Yes, I knew he had sold the business but I haven’t ordered any decals since the change of ownership.

What body tube did you use for the orbiter?

I have been wanting to build a 1.67 upscale for a long time. A BT-20 maps to a 29mm motor mount tube, but I fear that may be too heavy to glide well at all. Quest 30mm tube may work, but it is a bit too small for my taste.

I did use a 29mm motor tube. A bit heavy, and I suppose I could have peeled out a layer, but performance was fine. I did the trade off that I wanted it scale, chose the 29mm tube, and did not worry about it not being the ultimate glider.

I have a lathe so I turned a “B” profile nose cone for the orbiter. The transporter’s nose cone is a BNC-60Y from Semroc.

Looking good, Jeffy.
The new owners of Tango Papa have a lot of stuff on ebay .
Beware however they "print to order" and do not stock too much.
They use that as an EXCUSE for long delivery times, which is a bunch of BUNK.

Thanks! How long of a delivery time are we talking about?

That looks to be about perfect, super crisp. You work fast too, wow.

Thanks! When I’m working from home I have more build time. When I’m traveling for work I don’t.

Looks great Jeff!
Wasn't it fun to do the glue fillets in the close fins in the back?

Look out - I'm the Meister Shyster!

Took almost two weeks to get a set of 1/70 Saturn 1B decals.
Decals were 100% top-notch great, just did not expect them to take that long.

It was easier than filleting the regular size OT’s fins—but not by much.
