Nice lookin' basic 3FNC with swept fins. Estes decided t' re-use t' name o' an older rocket for some reason. Kind o' looks like a sleeker Big Bertha, or mayby a beefed up Scamp? Your guess is as good as mine. Either way, a BT-55 body tube, with an 18mm motor mount translates into nice smooth flights that you can keep in sight.
This rocket be one o' three that I constructed in a hotel in Tucson, AZ while on a business trip and was flown at t' annual 2 day Desert Heat launch put on by t' Southern Arizona Rocketry Association.
