Superb flyer!

By lt5150 May 3, 2016

Great rocket! Goes together easy and quick, and on a C engine, really takes off! I painted mine solid red to get away from the pencil theme, and this rocket is popular at the flying field, mainly for its performance. It shoots right off of the pad, and with a smaller parachute, does not carry too far. Getting away from sanding sealer and a fin alignment guide during construction doesn't hurt, either.
