Mongoose Model Rocket Kit

This is an easy to assemble, rugged, two stage rocket. I bought this rocket as an easy way to try to fly a mini camera, and it worked great! Once I flew it into a tree, and a branch caught a fin full speed, and it didn't break! I'm back to buy a second because I like flying this model so much (My first is starting to show some wear and tear after a lot of launches). I can't imagine a better (easier) introduction to two stage rockets than this one.

this rocket is a great kit for your first 2-stage rocket. the one-piece plastic fin units make it very easy to build. And no painting is required! Also, the lower stage slides into the bottom of the rocket with a tube coupler. Some kits attach the lower stage to the rocket only by taping the two motors together, (like the CC express kit). The rocket was stable and flew straight.

This rocket is fun to assemble and is a great 2-stage flier. On the other hand the body tube is extremely flimsy and bends and creases easily. If you get this kit I recommend buying a replacement tube and using that in the construction.
