"Plastic Fantastic!"

rbeard2 (Dayton, OH)

Pros - Small, inexpensive, no finishing required, press-fit, sticker-style decals, nice engine retention device included, uses inexpensive motors, flies well. Cons - old eyes may have hard time seeing it! Nice rocket. Nearly ready to fly, it requires little assembly and no modifications to perform well.

"Design Flaw"

kemteach (Flushing, NY)

The bandito is a nice beginner rocket to build but there is a problem with the motor mount system. The motor is inserted directly into the body tube which is too narrow. This requires you to jam the motor into the body and presents a real possibility of ruining the rocket in the process. If you manage to get most of the motor in, it will fly but then come the problem of using pliers to remove the motor without ripping the rocket apart. For similar money, I'd recommend the Firehawk or UP Aerospace (which replaces the Gnome, a very reliable first rocket).
