"Cool Value!"

undefined

You want a project that will satisfy your OCD? This is it! Skill level 4 (and they mean it!) The design is great and the rocket goes together straight and true despite some very complicated construction around the ram-air intakes. Lots of potential to modify the finish and airfoil the various aerodynamic surfaces. Mine is nearing completion but I have seen several of these fly and they perform well. At almost 3 feet in length, this is a lot of rocket for the buck!

"Fun build"

undefined

Fun to build... has an interesting touch... one thing i would suggest with this rocket is masking the bottom of the intakes and using your filler of choice before attaching them to the body tube... other then that this rocket is a blast to fly!!!

"Nice intro to scale rockets"

undefined

This kit is a good way to sharpen your skills as a rocket builder. If you are at all interested in getting into scale model rockets, this is a good way to stick your toe in without being too intimidated. It takes some time and patience to build this kit but it is well worth the time and is very rewarding.
