Good rocket to add to the collection

By Bubba02STi January 25, 2013

This a great rocket and great upscale... however it easily weathercocks with the slightest wind... also i recommend the kevlar and elastic shock cord for the rocket... if it does weather cock it could end up zippering... on calm days though this bird will eat up e9's all day...

nice rocket but a one building note

By wbraunsdorf December 18, 2015

I like the styling of this kit. the huge fins make it look really nice but be careful the triangle fins would be really easy to put on the wrong way. I did not do it, but a person with less experience might make them pop fins make sure you check the grain before gluing them on
