1970's mostly original omega

[That Rocket Man]

Not sure if an Estes Omega is considered a low power or a mid-power but I finally finished an original 1970's Omega that I bought on eBay. It was water damaged so I had to redo the fins on new balsa, build the engine mounting rings from scratch, order new decals, replace the launch lug and and new 18"parachute and mounted Kevlar shock cord through the new engine mounts but it's finally done. Looking for a place in Birmingham to fly it so I won't lose it. How's it look?

Nice Job!!!

Single-piece (blow molded) nosecone or the older (injection molded) two-piece one?

 

[That Rocket Man]

It was a single piece.

Looks great, I think I bid on that one.

 

[That Rocket Man]

Yeah I paid too much. The condition was not well documented.

I know that story. Sadly
