Some forgotten Shrox kits

[A Fish Named Wallyum]

This was one of the pages on the Shrox site years ago that showed some potential new offerings. (I copied it before it disappeared.) The Icarus eventually did come out, but I think the rest never materialized. I always liked the looks of the Federation in particular. Maybe they're now in Estes future? :rolleyes:

[Tom Swift]

Those are cool! Looks like the aft end of the Federation has a music CD as well as the trademark Shrox ping pong ball.

[sandman]

Don't forget the Sarah Conner.

Here's my version. I call it the John Conner.

No decals yet. Just haven't figured that part out yet.

I think it's gonna need a lot of nose weight.

Oh, now that is soooo awesome!

[JAL3]

It looks like I entered the ranks of the BARs too late. These remind me of the kits I wanted as a kid but could never find or afford. :(

Is there a source for buying any of these Shrox kits? :D

[A Fish Named Wallyum]

Looks like Estes will be making the Icarus available as the Daedalus, but I'm not sure as far as any of the others. I think Flis Kits still kits the Alien 8 and Apogee does the Snarky.
I just pulled out Alien 8 #37 tonight to finally start it. :o

Thanks, I ahve those 2 in the build pile. I was just hoping against hope that somebody would read the message and say, "gee, old whatchmacallit hobbies down the street has all those things and the old man is too stubbor to use the net...you could probably get them by calling 555-1212...."

Its a forlorn hope but hopes die hard.

Thanks again.

PS I didn't know the Snarky was a Shrox kit. It was the first I ever ordered from Apogee.

Apogee also does the Orion and the Stonebreaker, which are Shrox designs. I've really liked the Orion ever since I first saw it as a freely downloadable design in the Apogee newsletter.

Yeah, I forgot about the newsletter downloads. I've got a CD with a bunch of those that someone printed off for me. There were some pretty cool plans on there. I think Chan Stevens built and reviewed them all for EMRR. I was there when he flew the Shrox Shuttle. IIRC, it came in VERY HOT!
Man, that was a long time ago. :(
And now that I'm thinking about it, Shrox gave everyone a free plan as a Christmas gift one year. I'm not sure which plan it was, but I think I saved it on my home computer. :cool:

Here what the ALIEN 8 was to look like when it was first designed.

Yes, and get them back into the market place so we can buy them. :D Very creative designs, Shrox.

[the mole]

I have started cutting out the tube lengths for the Shrox HYPERION. I had this kit when it first came out. I lost the kit in a move. I was lucky and found the instruction I had copied the mesurments of all the tubes on. This is a nice size kit. :)

Don't give up hope on finding the Hyperion. I've had several rockets reappear since my move, all of which I'd given up hope on. I also had a bunch reappear in 2001 after being lost since 1994/95, one of which was an Estes Little Joe. (I almost typed "Little Hoe".) Needless to say, I was quite happy to see that bird again. :cool:

[ScaleNut]

Shrox has posted plans for a number of them , you have to dig thru TRF to find alot of them , these are a few that I see haven't been posted yet that I found plans for and there are more to be found.

Man, talk about thinking outside the box! (Oops, cliche. :o Sorry.)

Mark

[the mole]

It 's nice to see all these pictures of Shrox rockets. I have his SHX STARSHUTTLE still in the bag. His kits are somewhat easy to clone because he used ESTES size tubes and nose cones. I do hope we see more of his designs.

[moonzero2]

Are the Shrox rocket plans posted some where on the internet?

[A Fish Named Wallyum]

Are the Shrox rocket plans posted some where on the internet?

Yes, if you search through the back issues of the Apogee Newsletters, you should find quite a few of them. I'm sure there are others, but I've got nothing on them.

I was thinking that it was more like thinking outside the silverware drawer.
Or "inside" in this case. :rolleyes:

[barone]

Oh Scooooottttt.

Can you see about posting Shrox plans here? I'd sure like to get a few. That shuttle looks interesting..... :D

[moonzero2]

I was thinking about that shuttle too! Cool design.

[the mole]

I have the shuttle and other Shrox plans. I beleve we would have to get Shrox permission to post them and at this time this wount happen. :(

[DeanHFox]

Folks, I haven't located the specific post yet, but several months ago, Shrox poked his head in and asked that his designs not be posted or shared, as he had plans for them. I do believe this excludes his "published plans" (for example, those plans in the Apogee Newsletters).

Anything like the Star Shuttle, Alien8, and so on (that were kitted up and available for sale at one time or another) would seem to be off limits based on his request. I don't think there's anything preventing anyone from taking the time (as EchoVictor and Sandman did) to analyze the available Shrox artwork and make their own "interpretations" of his Shrockets, but a straight "parts list and plans" approach that we know and love for cloning the older Estes/Centuri designs would be a no-no.

I love Shrox's designs as much as the rest of us, and I think we should respect his wishes. That having been said, I'm drooling for the next chance to pickup any of his kits, as they're fun builds (and have that "cool" factor that we all dig). :)

Just my two cents.

[Tau Zero]

Pretty much in your back yard. ;) :D (By which I mean Apogee Components, the fine folks that brought us RockSim.)


Yes, if you search through the back issues of the Apogee Newsletters, you should find quite a few of them. I'm sure there are others, but I've got nothing on them.Here are the plans and files for the Shrox designs that were published in Apogee's "Peak of Flight" newsletters, but they're not the "official" Shrockets that are seen at the beginning of this thread:

Dean, not to mention the 3 Shrox rockets that are being re-released by Estes under new names this year!

[rkt2k1]

Here's a couple Shrox works that I found saved on my harddrive.

The plan book was suggested to Doug on multiple occasions in the past. Something like what Peter Alway did with Scale Bash, which I've always found an incredibly entertaining piece of work. So far, nothing has been able to shake anything loose except the occasional picture. :(

[Bill]

I sat in on a Shrox session on model rocket design at a NARCON years ago hoping he was going to give us some insight on how he comes up with his ideas or how he designs for stability. Unfortunately for me, it turned out to be an intro to Rocksim.


Bill

[Solomoriah]

Whew... for a moment there, I thought you said you sat on a Shrox design...

:D

[the mole]

Here are three more Shrox designs. http://web.archive.org/web/20040403205300/http://www.shrox.com/shrockets.html

I wish he had put out the SHX-3.

[Doug Sams]

I sat in on a Shrox session on model rocket design at a NARCON years ago hoping he was going to give us some insight on how he comes up with his ideas or how he designs for stability. Unfortunately for me, it turned out to be an intro to Rocksim.Bill,

As I recall, he used lots of TLAR in his presentation. Rocksim was nowhere near capable then of sim'ing all the asymmetric stuff he would put into his birds, so he said he would draw them up (can't recall which drawing tool he used) and then stretch them here or there if he thought that would improve stability. Keep in mind, at that time, I think he had just gone to work at Apogee, so no doubt he had access to Rocksim :) But most of his rockets have struck me as being anything but 3FNC in the context of simulating.

For anyone wanting to build a Shrox style rocket (Shrocket), stop by your sporting goods store and get a pack of ping pong balls, then head to Fry's for some blank CD's :) (In the old days, you coulda used AOL CD's ;)) Then sit at your bench dreaming up ways of sliding that ping pong ball over a BT-50. Not sure what glue works best with CD's, tho :)

Don't forget the Sarah Conner.

Here's my version. I call it the John Conner.

No decals yet. Just haven't figured that part out yet.

I think it's gonna need a lot of nose weight.

Kinda reminds me of the NSEA Protector ('Galaxy Quest') done up as a kit.
Which kinda gives me an idea...

I also had a bunch reappear in 2001 after being lost since 1994/95, one of which was an Estes Little Joe. (I almost typed "Little Hoe".) Needless to say, I was quite happy to see that bird again. :cool:


Hehehee... I think that's the SHR version... LOL:)

I got a million of 'em... :chuckle:

Later! OL JR :)

[El Cheapo]

I'm pretty sure this hasn't been seen on here. It was built by a club friend Geoffrey K, a.k.a. Maniac BAR. The SHX Ripley was an amazing build. It flew on an F something. It went unstable but sure looked good on the way there. It has been repaired and do not know if it will fly again.

[the mole]

This thread got me thinking about my SHROX kits I had. So I spent the rainy day today looking for his kits. I bought all of these kit from him before he worked for Estes, Quest or Apogee. Here are the kits I have.

Hyperion
Stiletto
Hyper Soar
SHX-15
SHX Rammstein
Alien 8
Icarus
Star Shuttle
Navajo
Scramca

Any body got some other kits from him before he worked for the three companys above?

[Chris_Timm]

I had the original SHROX-built prototype model of the SHX-3.
The as-designed rear ejection model suffered a no-deploy
and lawndarted.
I salvaged the wings and decals and built another model with standard pop the cone deployment and flew it at the NARAM that was held at the Cow-atorium.
Very stable on an E9.

Chris

[the mole]

I always wanted the SHX-3 but neve got one. Have know idea how many were made or sold . You talk about rear ejection the only rear ejection model I built was SHX Rammstein. It worked well. The SHX Rammstein main body tube was a BT-70. It was a nice size rocket. I would like to build another one along with his Fox Fire and LexxJet .

I saw a design drawing of his Delta wing SHX-15. That was another one I always hope he would have made a kit of.

Chris, was the SHX-3 main body tube a BT-70 with a BT-60 rear tube and engine mounted in it? What was the full length of the SHX-3?

[Chris_Timm]

Chris, was the SHX-3 main body tube a BT-70 with a BT-60 rear tube and engine mounted in it? What was the full length of the SHX-3?

BT-55 rear tube.
Overall length 37"

I have to find the file of the scan I did of the markings.
The SHX-3 never made it past the prototype phase.

[Centuriflyer]

I've got one you've probably never seen before. The elusive Shrox saucer. Behold the Europa Probe!

[Centuriflyer]

Scram Cat. Gotta build one of these.

[Centuriflyer]

X-3 style rocket. Pretty cool.

[Centuriflyer]

This is a great Navajo concept. I've had parts of this one under construction for a few years and probably need to finish it.

[the mole]

I've got one you've probably never seen before. The elusive Shrox saucer. Behold the Europa Probe!

You'r right. This is the first time I have seen this one. His design are always outside of the box.

[luke strawwalker]

Scram Cat. Gotta build one of these.

VERY cool... looks like the "Hound Dog" nuclear missile I saw in the USAF Museum in Dayton a couple months ago...

Later! OL JR :)

[Feyd]

That picture of the Shrox Harrier that was posted a way back was way cool. Does anyone have plans/rocksim files for that one? I'd like to add it to my (way too long) build queue.

[Ramjet]

I built and flew an Orion from Apogee, a Shrox design.
It flew too well, never got it back, drifted to never never land...

I like the looks of several of those, I hope they get brought into the world .

Shrox, wherever you are, you don't think outside the box...
I think you've never seen the box ;-)
Keep up the very impressive work.

I'd love the Sarah Conner on my build bench.

I drew up some plans for the Sarah Conner and even built one. Nover got around to ballancing and flying it but I will.

Shrox asked me at one time to build him one but then he dissapeared again and never answered me back.

He did ask me not to make any more.

I made up some drawing before I did it but well, he asked me not to do anything with them.

Tomm is right.
SHROX has been gone from Quest over a year now, I do believe.
His last post was back in December and he popped in back in May.

[Rocket Doctor]

First time I heard this ?????I wonder what happened at Quest

[jetlag]

Based on the problems with the kits he designed for them, and his health issues, Quest and he probably mutually agreed to say 'bye.
A trial that did not work so well...

It's a PDF file I've had for a while. He also did a Delta-winged version I think.

I have to go look in my shop! The only reason I never really pursued building them was that I needed to have legal-sized cardstock for the wraps, so I never looked that hard for it.

I'd like to request a copy of the updated fin patterns for the 15-B - they are not online anywhere that I can find:

I should also add the following two rockets that were not in the list above:

SHX AS-1 Fighter Escort (Quest)
SHX Aerospace One (Quest)

and rename the following:
SHX LexxJet (DynaStar)

linky no worky! :(

[LW Bercini]

Shrox came and went during my most recent hiatus from the hobby, so I never got a chance to try out any of his kits. If any of you have one or two collecting dust in your basement that you'd be willing to sell, please drop me a PM

Thanks.

Long ago, Doug posted some Lightwave 3D renderings of Shrockets-
http://www.rocketryforumarchive.com/showthread.php?t=47291&highlight=lightwave
Since the TRA Archive links to shrox.com (which could vaporize anytime), I'll also post the files here for posterity.


You'll need the K3D viewer to read the .lwo files - http://www.kevs3d.co.uk/k3d2.html

As noted in the TRA Archive, the Ripley-docked file has some 'junk' attached to the tail end of the rocket.

Enjoy!

[brianc]

And to provide a taste of the .lwo files, here's some screenshots from the K3D viewer.

Thanks Brian. Great finds!

Anyone know if these are, in fact, Shrox designs?

Planet Probe (Quest) ?
MLAS (Quest) ?

That is a good question. Not in the normal "Shrox" style. My guess is No. He may have worked on the production (graphics, packaging...blah blah blah) but not the design. But that said, Bill Stein should weigh in.

Or maybe Bill Stine. :)

Given the MLAS is a (semi) scale model of a real article, I'd say no...


Planet Probe? Doubtful. As someone noted, not really Doug's style.

[kevinj]

I've got one you've probably never seen before. The elusive Shrox saucer. Behold the Europa Probe!

I sorta built one of these-- flew very nicely.

[shrox]

A very nice thread.

[Tau Zero]

A very nice thread.The rest of us think so, too. ;) :D

[Madison Alum]

These are all really great designs. I especially like the Solarkron.

[tomm]

Here's a quick update a made today to the list - just to bring this thread back from the dead.

Who has two tumbs up and built almost all of those Shrox rockets?

Me (http://www.rocketryforum.com/showthread.php?47961-Some-Remembered-Shrox-Kits&) , that's who.
