I could, um, give some technical advice on the basics, though a mass produced model would be fabricated totally differently.....

Actually, I don't seriously think Estes would do that. I have daydreams that some R/C company will do it for 2019, but won't be surprised if nobody does.

But I am excited to see whatever the new Estes does.

And am comforted that Estes is in good hands. The first owners to know (and really care) about this hobby since Vern sold it to Damon around 1969-ish.
