Nice looking basic 3FNC with swept fins.  Estes decided to re-use the name of an older rocket for some reason.  Kind of looks like a sleeker Big Bertha, or mayby a beefed up Scamp?  Your guess is as good as mine.  Either way, a BT-55 body tube, with an 18mm motor mount translates into nice smooth flights that you can keep in sight.

This rocket was one of three that I constructed in a hotel in Tucson, AZ while on a business trip and was flown at the annual 2 day Desert Heat launch put on by the Southern Arizona Rocketry Association.
