By the way, I like the new logo and am humbled to see our old logo on there.

Dave Miller from Sirius Rocketry is good at vacuforming. I'm pretty confident he'd give you any tips needed.

I was going to say Gus that I did show mine to Carl at NARAM 49. Thanks for the kind words, but thanks should go to the Sky Dart designer, Larry Renger. They are a ton of fun to fly.

So, does this quality as an "official" clone, a "good 'nuff" clone, or does it still require the nacelle pieces to satisfy the rules?

I used wire on mine for the elastic catch, fastened with a few drops of epoxy. Laser cut parts sure would be nice. I might have to build another in that case. Here's mine.

Oooh man. Imagine the possibilities if Semroc had vacuum forming at their disposal! We can start with the Orion and work our way up the list.
