This product recommended for children ages 10+ with adult supervision for those under 12, and rocketeers of all ages.

This little guy scoots!

Performs well on an A8-3. Performs very well on any B series. It is nearly impossible to spot until ejection on a C6-7, and wow what a decent with a 7-second delay! I keep a few around for test flights before the big boys come out to play. Easy to build with the kids too, should be in an educational pack available for classrooms and groups since all the basic skills to assemble a model rocket will be used to complete the project. Reminds me of my first rocket the Sky Hook all those years ago.

Fun rocket to build and fly

Perfect little rocket for shooting in small parks with an A8-3.

CONS. Stickers.
NO Stickers for the fins, I used a combo of spray paint and hand painting the stripe.

Everything was great!
