Mfg. Description: Over 7 Feet Tall!
Big 3-E engine* cluster!
Biggest rocket in the FlisKits fleet!
The Richter Recker derives its name from the idea that its large, 3 engine cluster would wreck a richter scale if it were close enough to the launch pad. While not quite that earth-shattering, the use of 3 black powder motors in a cluster is a beautiful sight to behold! Even with its large size, this model will leap off the launch pad riding a very impressive tail of fire and smoke.
At your next launch, everyone will know when the Richter Recker is launched!
Standing over 7 feet tall, the Richter Recker includes two 24" parachutes for dual, separate recovery (the upper portion of the rocket descends separate from the lower portion).
Also available for the Richter Recker are select downloads for adding exciting details to your model. You can either print these onto label paper, decal paper or use them as masks for spray painting onto your model. (Fliskits 2013 Web Ad)

Looking great so far! I liked the dark red/black scheme as well so that's what I did on mine. Decals are from stickershock, as well as the paint masks to do the scallops.
