I admit, I was a skeptic at first, but this kit went together quickly, painted up nicely with minimal effort, and flew as advertised. Star of the show at a command performance for my neighborhood second graders. Killer small field flyer, to the point that I’d consider flying this one in the backyard.

This one is probably an Advanced kit because it requires skills you don’t use too much – specifically working with card stock. The disc parts are a bit tricky, but not overly complicated. Flying is easy enough but don’t expect a lot of altitude with mini engines and a lot of drag. Still fun though!

This rocket was fun to build, and is an impressive flyer.
