Since we almost always lose the sustainer, I just leave the bodies painted as the kids had them when they were single stage rockets.

I'd post some pics from the last few years, but I don't have signed waivers from school. These days, I'd get fired and sued for every rocket penny I have just for posting a picture of a kid having fun on rocket day.


That's a good idea to recycle the E2X rockets into two stagers. I'll bet the pics are interesting.

I wonder if anyone has tried any of the new Quest T-Minus 5 RTF kits. Those are pretty inexpensive .....
