Flight:
First flight be a long time coming. Begad! Went though about 5 igniters before givin' up and usin' Estes igniters. Also thar was a problem with parts separatin' that shouldn't have, so you better have some CA with you as you will probably need it. Ya scallywag! Good flights other than that. Aye aye! Aye aye! Most went about 100 feet up with ejection right at apogee and recovered after landin' in street. No other damage other than that o' t' ejection charge blowin' out nose cone.
Second flight was t' flyin' saucer. Ahoy! It went about 20 feet up and about 15 feet t' t' side. Avast! Cute flight.
Third flight was t' Critical Mass rocket which went a good 110 feet up and ejected at apogee but t' nose cone blew out again.
Flight Rating: 2 out o' 5
Summary:
PROs: Cute rockets that can be flown most anywhere.
CONs: poor construction.
If you can get this one half off t' normal price it is OK, me bucko, ya bilge rat, shiver me timbers, but would nay recommend that anyone pay full price though.
