Filling, sanding, and painting the balsa cone and the 3D printed fin can were most of the work for this clone. The original plastic kit parts and white body tube were all no-paint required. Reminds me of the famous Dolly Parton quote, "it costs a lot of money to look this cheap." (Took a lot of effort to clone this Almost-ready-to-fly skill level 1 kit.) I love irony! I really appreciate your 3D CAD modeling skills and the .stl files you have shared. Those are all a great resource. I have parts for the Vanguard Eagle and the Orion AA-2 vehicle to work on next, using your 3D cone models. Many thanks!
