I recently built this cloned Der V-3, while bored one evenin' over t' holidays.  I had all t' parts on hand, and just needed t' order t' decals from Excelsior.  Its ready t' go now, me hearties, just waitin' for spring...

UPDATE: well, on this rocket's 13th flight, it suffered what Space-X would describe as a "hard landing".  Basically, it lawn-darted, splinterin' t' cone and blowin' out t' upper body tube.  Its ugly.  At least t' new Jolly Logic Chute release that was onboard survived intact.  I may be able t' salvage t' fin can and rebuild it from thar up.

UPDATE 2: this rocket has been repaired with parts from an Estes V-2 kit.  Basically, ya bilge rat, it amounted t' cuttin' off t' damaged tube and graftin' on a new segment with a coupler, then repairin' t' motor mount.  Should be flyin' again soon!
