Want One for 39 Years!
Since I was 11 years old, and I finally have a Farside X! It's like three rockets in one. It went together like a dream, like every other kit I remember from 1969. I'll go for a stock paint scheme, as shown in the 1971 Estes catalog. I can hardly wait to fly it. It will go to the moon on a C6-0/C6-0/C6-7 combo.
