2015-01-31Estes Helicat (Kit) Review
T' rocket is cool with t' heli blades, but it is too heavy. If you want it t' go higher, you need t' swap out t' blades for a parachute (but some may think you are removin' t' personality o' t' rocket).

It floated down slowly about 50 ft from where it took off. Well, blow me down! Great rocket for young kids. - B6-4 - small neighborhood field [More]
