Another "It's taking longer than I expected" model is completed.

True, it didn't take 26 years but it should have been finished in two weeks instead of four.

Here is my new NCRBE Big Brute model painted with Krylon Pewter Grey as was the actual photo model.

My only change to the kit was replacing the kit motor retainer with one of the newer Estes 29mm motor retainers (Thank you John Boren).

The original kit motor retainer would only work with NCRBE F62/G70 DarkStar motors.
The newer motor retainer will work with AeroTech motors.

Again, first flight at NARAM-60. Perhaps I will finally get to fly an AeroTech G75 Metalstorm motor with this model.
