Vehicle 70 Dominator, a sport payload model loosely inspired by Centuri's X-16 model rocket as featured in the company's Power System Handbook of 1979. The rocket had a diameter of 41.5 mm and measured 605 mm in length, and it was built using Estes and Centuri parts.
Vehicle 70 was designed to be flown using D to F-type motors and is pictured here on an Aerotech Mantis launch pad, before its maiden flight with an Estes D12-5 black powder motor. The rocket carried an Estes Transroc II sonic beacon. Northern Switzerland, June 17, 1999.
