Estes Sky Raider clone - saw Bill Eichelberger's posts, and figured "I gotta make me one of these!" Modified it to accept all Estes 24 mm motors, and added an altimeter bay in the payload section.

All parts by Semroc and decals by Excelsior.

Love the Sky Raider. Nice job Bill!

Clone of the Estes Meteor (#1370), released in 1981. Parts - including the gorgeous balsa nose cone - by Semroc, great decals by Excelsior.

My thanks to hcmbanjo and others who posted about using a camel's hair brush to smooth out thin decals - I would 've never gotten that big meteor decal to work without it!

"Parts by SEMROC decals by Excelsior."

Gees, Bill, you are beginning to sound like a broken record.

Beautiful work, glad I can help.

Just sticking with what works, Gordon Also giving credit where credit is due - us academics are finicky about that.

Semroc Bandit - white "experimental" decal by Excelsior. I cannot recommend this kit highly enough; not only are the parts first-rate, but it was a very enjoyable build! The three color paint scheme looks great, and is not that tough to do with a bit of good masking tape.
