Scratch Built from dimensions given in "The Spaceship Handbook" by Jack Hagerty.

This is my Von Braun / Disney Ferry Rocket (unpainted), on a D12-3. Video slowed to 1/2 normal speed. First flight to test stability. Crack recovery team!

  • did you build or buy this rocket

  • Scratch built it myself. Cardstock wraps around thin ply formers, balsa fins (through the wall construction.)

    I haven't flown it in a few years - after it wrecked I rebuilt it, but it looks kind of crummy now.

    Some day I'd like to tackle the larger, flying-wing shuttle concept he designed, maybe with a large cluster.

  • Nice job. Reminds me of the one I built out of cardboard and Centuri Alpha kit back in 1971.Couldn't get mine to glide either.
