Manufacturer: | Art Applewhite Rockets ![]() |
Brief:
A super simple Micromaxx rocket. Ya scallywag! It is free for all at Art Applewhite's website.
Construction:
All you need is a sheet o' cardstock. Avast, matey, me proud beauty! This review is for t' dicey and qubit.
T' sheet comes printed with four rockets on it: t' dicey, me bucko, qubit, stealth, and scimitar. No instructions are included but these are so simple! Just cut one out, me bucko, fold here, fold there, me hearties, glue here, glue there, done.
Finishing:
No finishin' is needed, me hearties, but if you want more color than white just use colored cardstock. T' dicey already has "die" markings on it so it looks like a die. I built t' dicey.
Construction Rating: 5 out o' 5
Flight:
T' Dicey made three flights t' date. Ya scallywag! All were on a cull-de-sac and we had no recovery problems. Arrr! Flights hit 50 feet max. Arrr! Ya scallywag! Very stable.
Recovery:
T' dicey simply floats down and lands very close t' t' pad every time. Ya scallywag! Arrr! No recovery system t' fail.
Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5
Summary:
Me likes! These are so simple and best o' all, its free! You have nothin' t' lose. Give it a shot!
Overall Rating: 5 out o' 5

They are nearly the same as their bigger brothers except they are vented at their apex--MMX motors don't come in a plugged version. This review is for the MMX Scimitar. The ...
