Default Build thread: Estes SA-2061 Sasha #7271

While "The Vixen" wet-sands the 3D printed parts of the Boyce Aerospace Nike Ajax and shoots me dirty looks (go figure,) I'll build this brand new, 2-stage, scale-like beauty: the Estes #7271 SA-2061 Sasha.

I've slit the kit bag open and everything looks good. Tubes are nice. There's a slotted BT-60 booster tube. Decals are nice. There's (3) balsa sheets.

I first assemble the (2) engine mounts. These will get epoxy for adhesive and the sustainer's 24mm mount gets a Kevlar shock cord leader. TBC
