MPC Lambda Payloader Build, Finished




This one brought back memories of the smaller rockets from the 1960s and 1970s. Most rockets are typically much bigger now.

The four fins had one of my better masks.
Here's the payload section -
The molded shoulders on the adapter and nose cone should have been longer.

If the adapter was used as a boat tail - those four molded recess lines could be used for positioning fins.

I pretty much built this one as per the instructions but added a string to keep the payload section together at ejection.

  1. The orange and white colors look awesome. The checkerboard adds to the older looks, which I like.
