Thoughts I'm thinkin'.....
Ventris and Argent look like cool Pro Series birds.
The MANTA IS BACK!!!! And the Freefall! And Mosquito!!!
Definitely need to pick up a couple of Crossfire kits and I REALLY like the new Solar Warrior.
Dark Energy is, uh, intriguing? But that nose cone.
A NEW SKY DART?!!!!
I like the looks of the new Designer's Special.

I miss being SAM 0058

Build floor: Centuri Mini Dactyl Estes - Low Boom SST Semroc - Marauder, Shrike, SST Shuttle

In paint: Canaroc Starfighter Scorpion Estes F-22 Air Superiority Fighter, Multi-Roc, Solar Sailer II Semroc Cyber III

Ready to fly: Estes - Solar Sailer II Semroc - Earmark, Groonie Der V 1/2

I must admit, I'm liking it and I like surprises.

The Astron Skydart II e.g.

And the big Nike Smoke is also a very nice addition

Good stuff.

I did notice on the Nike Smoke listing that the fins are to be laser cut plywood. I thought John B. posted the fins would be two-part plastic.

Did not see the Saturn V

I like the rest, though, much. A new Skydart II is a pleasant surprise, as said. I have the Mega Skydart from Neubauer, and it flies quite well.
The Solar Warrior and the Asteroid Hunter look neat. How 'bout the sought-after Rigel nose cone's being used for new Dark Energy?

Great job, Estes!
Allen

Nice! V2, Asteroid Hunter, Mini comanche-3, the Fletcher looks neat too, as well as the others we've seen in stores recently. All the new booster motors, including an E12! And how did that Skydart II sneak up on us?! I wonder what makes it a "II"?

This thing is packed with good stuff!

I'll bet the difference is related to updates like the laser cut wood.

EST3552 coming back?

Interesting......

This is a typo, they are in fact plastic.


John Boren

The D-Region Tomahawk is 1.8". I wonder if it uses the AT nose cone mold?

Both Home Depot and Lowes sells 1/4" x 48" steel rods which I believe fits the Estes E pad.
