Received this 60th Anniversary kit from Estes as part of the SWAG Bag at NARAM 60. Gave it to my daughter and we built it together and added it to her expanding fleet. The only modification was to replace the rubber shock cord with a combination of Kevlar and elastic, although we did use the classic tri-fold paper shock cord mount to anchor the Kevlar.
