Last weekend I was lucky enough to score a complete Estes Titan IIE kit for $25 (a little bit less than the 1989 retail sticker price on the kit box). I've been searching the web looking for suggestions to mods to make the built rocket more interesting or more true to scale. The two most common suggestions I've found are:

1. Ditch the removable fins and add removable clear plastic fins to the SRBs.
2. Convert to 2x18mm cluster so it can be built and flown with the motor nozzle shroud attached.

A less common suggestion was to, of course, power the SRBs with 18mm motors. No suggestions on how to make that stable or fly w/o crashing if one of the SRB's doesn't light.

So much for fins and motors.

What I would *really* like are suggestions where the model could be made a little more accurate.

Thanks.
