This cool, Sci-Fi inspired sport model from Estes features a plastic nose cone, laser-cut wood parts, waterslide decals and parachute recovery. This should be a fun and challenging build for the experienced modeler! The completed model stands just over 27 inches tall. And it reminds us of the Discovery One from 2001...  and that's a good thing...
