in one word, no

in more words, unfortunately not

there was a "paper toy" of the thrust released, I will need to find it on my computer at home.

Oh man that would be cool if you could!,.. Been researching it and seeing all sorts of science class projects in the UK where students are making model rocket cars with Estes rockets,.. World record for one of these model cars is 204mph I think

Hi to all, Some time ago i started this project and I reached a good point, but other things pulled me away.



If there would be some interest in this, I could consider to restart it.

Best, Nando

copyright

Sorry for my poor understanding.
I think you Woolsey and HMCS are interested in my project, but I'm not sure what do you mean with the last posts. However my design is far from completion and I have to examine what I did and what remains to be done ( I stopped it one year ago ).



There is another issue, I think, the copyright. I don't know if the Richard Noble's organisation still keeps the copyright, but recently in june 2012 Orange and Intel had used the image of ThrustSSC without permission in their TV advertisement and Noble did a legal action. I'm not a professional and can't negotiate a permission with ThrustSSC organisation. This is the main reason that stopped my project.
If someone could help me to solve this problem I can consider to restart the project.

Best, Nando

You don't need to be a "professional" to ask permission.
there is no way to know before hand but they might love the idea of a paper model.

This worked for me with Bob Denver and the Gilligan's Island Minnow. He even helped me get the permission from Warner Bros.

However if they say no, that means no, I am sitting on an Adams family house model and a set of Swallows and Amazon's boats, that I cannot release.

You win some, you lose some.
