The Boyce Aerospace Hobbies 1/46th Scale Gemini Titan Builders Kit recreates America's third manned space system. The Gemini Titan mated the two astronaut Gemini capsule with the larger Titan two stage booster. The Gemini Titan launch system was instrumental in America's race to a moon landing as we used it to learn orbital rendezvous, docking, space walking and the effects of long term space flight on humans. Our Gemini Titan model showcases incredibly detailed parts such as the cluster motor mount with rear tank bulkhead, engine truss work, turbo-pump detail and screw on engine bell motor retainers. This Builders Kit also includes a detailed interstage with visible first state upper tank dome. There is a bayonet catch between the first and second stage and the second stage boasts display model details. The Boyce Aerospace Gemini Titan Builders Kit is comprised of 35 high-quality 3D-printed parts and 4 clip on clear laser cut fins for flight. Your Builders kit requires additional parts, so be sure to check your included instructions for a full list. Give your model the finishing touch with impressive 3-page full body wrap vinyl decals.
CanadaCanadian Builder
If you live in Canada, this will be on the pricey side to build. However, if you like scale manned space flight like me, it's a must have. I would add 3mm in length to the lower BT80 body tube to allow for placement of the 1st stage wraps. Be very careful and measure the wrap placement! You only get 1 shot at getting them right. Would suggest sealing with a quality acrylic high gloss sealer to bring out the colours. No decals are provided for the Gemini capsule, which is disappointing. So you will have to make your own.

United StatesProject: Gemini Titan II
I absolutely loved this build! It was fun to and easy to build and gave a great replica. Unfortunately, I could not fly it yet due to a stage two burn ban. I varied from the directions a couple of times. Once was when I was wrapping the wrapping the lower stage. I started on the top so that any Issues with the cut would be on the bottom. Worked out great being as how I I cut it about 1/100th too short, It wrapped around the bottom, then there was no issues with the lettering on the top. I wish that I would have used a paper cutter instead of trying to free hand cutting out the lower stage wraps. I do wish that the seams were in the back of the airframe and not on the side. My one and only complaint! And what I love is, when you buy your model the service does not there. They are fantastic at answering questions, and you can order new parts if you end up messing one up. This makes a huge difference when you go to clean them up. And if you have any questions, Alex Boyce is the man! I absolutely love these models. I have bought three so far and I plan on building the full 1/100th collection. Fully recommended by a retired Aerospace machinist!
United StatesVery good in the details
The Gemini capsul and service module are printed in fine detail. The graphics provided make the model look like the real thing in a photo! The scale using the BT-80 is my favorite, and it uses two motors in a cluster. The Builders kits are quite nice. I have purchased the V-2 as well as the Dyna-Soar Titan.
