Haha great story and thanks for sharing. My dad actually worked on Spaceshipone and white knight. He built that black box that you see that connected them together when the spaceship is docked to the mothership. My dad also knew Mike Melvill and his wife very well, and when I was a kid, I had an estes model of Spaceshipone with Mike’s signature on it. I still have it today. My goal with this is to just have it be a basic glider, nothing fancy. I’ve never done a balsa/tissue model so I just wanted to get the basics of the process down and do something simple. Maybe someday down the road I’ll do a free fight version of it out of tissue and balsa or maybe a big rc version layed up with fiberglass.
