Estes Executioner #1951 Rerelease!!
Looks like Estes is bringing back the Executioner for D & E engines. I wonder if we can modify it to take F engines, or why they didn't make that available?

Yes, you should be able to with a 29mm tube and your xacto knife. Why didn't Estes do that? Probably because that would blur the lines between the PSII kits and regular kits. kj |

And then they would get sued by the estate of Marvin Gaye. |

Don't the Vanguard and Star Orbiter already handily accomplish that? |
The Executioner is a re-issue.
Estes probably didn't want to change any of the parts to keep it much like the original. |

Vanguard? Yes, the Star Orbiter does blur the line very nicely (great flyer). |

Same BT & NC, 24mm vs 29mm. |
You mean, perhaps, the current BT-60-based Vagabond?
It's not quite the long thing the Star Orbiter (which uses two full length BT-60s) is, but it does seem to use the same NC..... |

I plead mashed potato brain. Yarp, Vagabond. Between the pair, they nicely blur the gap. |
Blured Lines - Marvin Gaye?
Pretty obscure, Fred. |
