Except for the TP it's a dead ringer......too bad they don't make a motor the thing will fly on worth a damn. Maybe they will be selling repackaged AT motors as their own too. What a bunch of dirtbags.

That is a really crappy thing to do.
What a bunch of turds.
What was the inspiration for your kit? Was it the full scale version from LDRS a few years ago? Could they have been inspired by that instead of yours?
I'm asking that in sincerity. When I first saw the Estes announcement, my first thought was of the one at LDRS.

I'd contact a lawyer.....pronto. If the situation were reversed, they'd be all over you.

Our inspiration preceeded Ky's attempt at flying the full scale one by at least a year, got the idea while waiting for the facilities at XPRS... I am not the kind of guy that runs whining to a lawyer so I just take it as it is and will move on, but it just SEEMED kinda a slimey thing to do... OH well...............
