Estes could up the stakes with a nice 1/100 SLS

The description of the kit on the Apogee site is helpful in deciding if you want to take on the challenge of building the kit! And Apogee makes it clear that the kit is challenging. If I didn’t have a lifetime supply of unbuilt kits, I might go for it. Maybe ...

SLS is now showing on the Estes website in the coming soon category. Package looks good.

Not a fan of "clunky" Cox-style RTF all plastic rockets.
