Estes - CC Express (#1302) Gallery

I stretched this one 6 inches and launches with E engines.

I did it as a Cherokee D tribute.

Here is another E engine stretched 6 inch single stage CC Express.

I used the fins and body tube from the second stage.

both waiting to fly !!!

They look great!

Here is mine.

.

I went with the stock paint scheme, but added a coupler on the bottom.
I set it up so the coupler only goes into the upper body tube 2mm.
Thanks to chadrog for the decals. I messed up the main decal the first time.

another stretched E9 engine CC Express, watch the video to see how
I build it. Very simple build, ignore my boring voice !

Looks great Nosecone! And bonus points for it actually being a CC Express!

Heres my CC Express, modified with small forward stabilizer fins...it needed a little forward weight distribution First one I built 2 months ago i lost on maiden flight( too much wind, to large chute) this one I have option of 3 stage since i did recover booster stage first time.( slight modifications to top of motor tube) This thing goes incredibly HIGH. I think the CC Express is one of Estes best designs. Hope you get it launched soon, mine was the straightest launch I've ever seen...this one has a "cropped chute" to reduce drift.

This was first CC Express's 1st and only flight....wish I would have found it...However, my 2nd express is much better...lesson learned.

The wife and kids were out of town some this week,so I decided to get one out of the ever growing build pile!
