A couple of months back we bought my 6 year old nephew the Estes Almost Ready to Fly Power Patrol. I helped him assemble it yesterday. I was a little disappointed with just how little assembly there is. I was expecting just a minor amount of gluing, say slotted fins or fin can to body... nope. No adhesives required, except where the body tube peeled a bit at the nosecone. Over all it seems solid enough.
However, it is a nice size, over 20". The other bonus, it went together quick so my nephew could start playing with it and feel he had build something. I had to explain to him it was too late in the day to launch rockets and Big Thicket National Preserve was not a good place to do it (no he doesn't actually live in the preserve, just VERY close).
