Great First Rocket

I built one of these when I was a kid in the late 80’s, and this was a far better experience. I got this kit to build with my 8yo son along with all the extras like engines and wadding. The rocket went together pretty quickly, and smoothly. We’ve launched it 3 times now and it’s still holding up very well. Recovery parachute has a little bit of a learning curve but has worked every time, even when it didn’t work perfectly the first time I made adjustments to work it out. We used the larger engines and definitely lost track of the rocket in the sky , so was glad to be in the middle of a large field park complex.

5 Rockets 5 Girls

For a summer fun project I purchased 5 rocket kits for my 5 granddaughters ages 3 to 12.
Found each girl a rocket kit for each to build.
With the rockets built, we launched on a Saturday morning.
Each rocket launhed successfully and were recovered.
The girls had fun as well as the Mom's and Dad's.
They have asked to do this again next year.
And we will.

Rocket and launchpad were both made well. The part that

Rocket and launchpad were both made well. The part that holds the motor was a pain to build with slow-drying glue because it comes in 5 parts that need to be glued together. The launchpad is nice because it is almost fully adjustable, coming with a hole for the pro launch rod. The electric igniter is made well but is hard to use one-handed (which doesn't really matter). Overall it is made well and I fully suggest that you buy it. I bought mine at Hobby Hobby and everything there for rockets is like half price.
