The easy way is to put them in the same block (Yes, I know that wasn't the answer you were looking for.) Or you could try using a message queue and messages between them. You don't have to use gr_message_sink. You could have your estimator block create mesages (of whatever format it likes) and insert them into a message queue that was handed to it, say in the constructor.
