This should be a fun build.
The early 1980s were a creative time for Estes. This model came out the same year as the Starship Nova. The model was produced from 1981 - 1985. It should be a good sister ship to the Galactic Taxi in size and detail.
The design feature is an lower offset main BT-20 tube inside the larger BT-55 at the engine end. The cardstock canopy fits in the open larger side of the offset tubes.
An online scan of the decals is fairly clean, I might still do a re-draw.

That one's on my list of future clones...
ReplyDeleteHrm... If suitable toothpick couldn't be found, perhaps a wooden coffee stirrer would work?
ReplyDeleteHi Naoto,
DeleteI ended up carving it from a popsicle stick, or as hobby stores call it - a craft stick.
Chris - is this a straight up clone or another kit from MoreRockets.com?
ReplyDeleteHi Openroad,
DeleteThis is a clone made up of spare and hand made parts. Not a MoreRockets kit, those kits are very expensive.
