Default Scorpius Build

I started the build of a cool old kit, the Scorpius (Estes #1375).
I was in rocketry hiatus when this one came out in 1982. This one definitely has a Star Wars vibe going for it. It needs a new main tube, but the rest of the kit is fine. The decals are in excellent condition.
I’ll be sending the instruction and decal scans to James Zalewski. Jim is going thru many of his archives to add better scans.

This kit uses the PNC-50X nose cone. I have already set aside a PNC-60X (used on the Sprint XL) for an upscale after this build is done.
