But I am glad you brought this up - that's another things to be really clear
about. The 4" Performance Rocketry Nike Smoke
kit is special and I think (besides the new 2-Stager) one of the best kits for
L2 class birds from Curtis!
The 4" Nike with the Molded fins - Mike Stoop (Madcow) makes two versions of
the 4" Nike Smoke now.
The nosecone is the same - however, the original Curtis design with the Molded
fins are
the only ones I've ever built and flown (I don't like the fin G10 design).
These are the ones
which Jack would sell, Rocketry Warehouse later picked them up, and finally
Madcow.
I'd like to think any deal we would get on the Nike Smoke would also have the
Curtis Molded fins, the
kit is here: https://www.madcowrocketry.com/4-inch-nike-smoke-molded-fins/ ;
($189)
Will, if you really need one I still have one brand new in the box in my Garage
(spare parts)- can let it go for
$150 .. we could probably get the original Nike (Molded fins) for that price
(minus shipping). I remember
Jack used to get them for $100!
The one with the G10 fins is here, it is a nice kit, just not scale:
https://www.madcowrocketry.com/4-fiberglass-nike-smoke/ ;($175)
Also, keep in mind there is the 5.5" one with Molded fins also:
https://www.madcowrocketry.com/5-5-inch-nike-smoke/ ;($400)
Rumour is he may do more 1/2 Scales like OO Nike.
For now, how many people are interested in the Molded Fin Nike in either 4" or
5.5" ?

I'm interested, though I'd like to get the molded fins for the Nike booster if
possible, even if it adds to the cost. Would this be some sort of bulk order
(through BAR or something?), or would we all be going to Madcow to place them
individually?
Thanks. - Will

How many people are in on the kit if we get the $100 special?
Thanks!

Hi Folks,
Two things for the LDRS in May
- Nike Smoke Drag Race? Do we want to have it? Would need to do in heats of 5.
- 2 Stage Nike Apache Altitude Contest and Kits - how many people are
interested in the Nike Apache 2 stage
which some of you may have received in the Madcow special?
If we did another kit run and LDRS special, would people purchase the kit?
Would they
participate in an altitude competition for the Nike Apache? (I->H)
Separately, we will have some discount codes and more LDRS details in the
weeks ahead.
Thanks!
