https://web.archive.org/web/2012040...ts.asp?SKU=KD-5 12/21/2011 Announced in SAM forum: https://www.oldrocketforum.com/show...459&postcount=1 Text of release announcement: Semroc has released four new kits for the winter build season. The Deci-Scale™ Aerobee 300™ is a 1/10 scale of the popular sounding rocket designed by Aerojet General, also called the "Spaerobee". Adding a Sparrow upper stage to the Aerobee-Hi (Aerobee 150), altitude and speed records were broken. This model is the starting point for your recreation of any of the several launches of this popular design. It is a sport scale so it does not have the booster that was normally used to launch the original. This model is 24mm engine ready for C1l's and D12's. It is almost 3 feet tall so it will be a great addition to your Deci-Scale™ family. It is also an upscale of the popular K- 17 Aerobee 300 produced by Estes in the early days. The Deci-Scale™ WAC Corporal™ is a 1/10 scale of the first two-stage liquid fueled rocket. This model is the starting point for your recreation of any of the several launches of this popular design. It is a sport scale so it does not have the booster that was normally used to launch the original. The Retro-Repro™ Cherokee-D™ is released by popular demand for an early Gene Street design. One of the first D powered designs, it launched a new generation in model rocketry. The popular Retro-Repro™ Ranger™ is based on a design by Vern Estes from 1962 of the first commercially available cluster kit. The design spawned many other versions over the years.

The Aerobee 300 was my first scale build from Estes. I could sure screw things up back then.

Pfff. That's nothing. I screwed my Semroc one up NOW. Yeah, that's how I roll. Mine is a fairly survivable error. It's need some sanding and filling, but not enough to give tbzep sweats. It's on my short list of what to take the next time I get out to the cornfield.
