Emily ★★★★★

I’ve built a few rockets before, but the 29mm motor mount on this one really opens up your engine options. The fit and finish were clean right out of the box, and it flew straight and true on its first launch.

Joseph ★★★★★

The pre-slotted airframe made assembly so much easier than my last rocket. I had it prepped for its first launch in under an hour, and it flew straight and true on the 29mm motor mount.

Henry ★★★★★

After getting frustrated with those flimsy starter kits, this pre-slotted airframe was a breeze to assemble and get flying quickly. The classic styling looks fantastic on the pad, and it's a solid performer with that 29mm motor mount.
