Default International Model Rockets and motors

Hi Gang,

I really am fascinated by the motors and models produced in other countries.

Here is a neat link I found:

http://translate.google.com/transla...&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

I used Google translator, so it is not always clear what the website is saying, but is fun nonetje less.

Here a nice example.

Phred,

Thanks for posting the link, really interesting site.


Leo,

You're not kidding. That shuttle is truly fantastic! I almost started crying when I worked my way through the launch pictures and saw what happened.

Do you have any idea why the model had working payload bay doors?

Rolf Stabroth!! The man is becoming a legend - Europe's premier rocket builder! I have admired (and have been awe-struck by) his work ever since I discovered his website a few years ago.
