Another Lovely PSII Rocket Returns!

I very much appreciate the builder PSII kits. Thanks for bringing another one back, Estes--Kuddos for Bill and the team! Mine is an original run kit, which I built pretty much stock. "Argent" means "silver," so I painted mine silver for the stock white parts, and white for the stock red/orange, left the black bits black, and added a couple of black "Argent" decals. You can fly it with just about anything that fits the motor mount, but I recommend and use rail guides and a Chute-Release with the bigger motors. I like to get 'em back! Ha!
