Estes Cherokee-E?
Last night I was perusing ebay and I thought I saw a listing for a new Estes Cherokee-E kit. I can't seem to find the listing now.
.....or was it the Scotch? Thanks

I believe it's one of the Hobby Lobby exclusive releases.

Look at completed listings and see. The guy canceled his listing starting out at $.99. But with the scotch you may have seen $99 so you didn't bid (:

It is indeed! I built this one a few weeks ago. BTW, Rustoleum Bright Blue gloss matches the blue of the decals almost perfectly.

No Hobby Lobby in my state, and I can't drive to the next nearby state that has one, but I found the online website and it listed the ESAM and Cherokee E. Put them in my cart, proceeded to checkout and.....
EEK! $35 shipping for a $27 order? And after the 40% coupon was applied! That is definitely way more than their actual shipping cost. First and last time I try ordering from them. HL, please give your potential customers from Alaska and Hawaii a break. I don't mind paying for actual shipping charges, but that is RIDICULOUS!

What is the estimated altitude on an E9?

Guaranteed the altitude is WAYYYYYYY TOO HIGH if this thing uses the same outrageously large 18" chute the old Cherokee-D had.
Even on a 12" chute the Cherokee-D had high potential of drifting away. I learned the hard way after losing 3 of them on D12-7's back in the day. I switched to long (90") streamers instead.
