Thanks guys. 9 years of indoor endurance models and miniature catapult gliders have definitely helped me out in building these critters. Incidentally, to give...
Josh: Have you had a chance to fly the Swing/Flop wing RG outdoors? Are you going to post plans for these little critters? John mrcluster/micromeister ...
Hello all! My son recently got an Estes model rocket for his birthday. I'm trying to learn more about this hobby as it's something he's never really done...
Carly, Greetings. First let me be up front and tell you that I am a manufacture as well as a member of this group. Micromaxx rockets are very tiny versions of...

Just finished assembly of a thing-a-am-jig and Basic build on the Triskelion. Very interesting and easy to assemble models. I like the fin jig unit on the...
