It's hard to tell, but it looks like that Athena's plastic wraps are pre-mounted. Kind of an odd thing for the company to do for you.


I have two Enerjet kits still in the box.

Various decals/wraps for each are 'secured' around body tubes for display while in the box. None are attached to the body tubes..

I think that pristine Athena went for something north of $500 on ebay.

Yep. I can see that. I don't know if it would go for that much in today's economy but it wouldn't surprise me.

The Orion is $42.50. Add another body tube and a transition and stand-offs and such . . . I would guess low fifties.

About 44 dollars for the tubes, balsa and rings: http://www.semroc.com/Store/Scripts...arts.asp?ID=561

Chute, wraps, decals, etc, will add to that.
