I fell in love with this rocket the first time I saw it, finally I have one in my paws. There aren't too many kits that get my attention like this one has, so I was excited to get started on it. Starting another one is not a great idea right now with MWPX fast approaching, but I can't wait...
I bought the kit from hobbylinc, it arrived yesterday with the rest of the order that earned 5000+ points to my account (think that's good for 50 cents?). I didn't do any research on the kit, the look of it was enough. First impression of the kit, WOW! This think is a beauty, and much bigger than expected. I love a kit with a parts list that goes into double letter part designations.
The laser cut cardstock parts are all very nice, the balsa is of decent quality. The tubes are nice, and the nose cone is super cool. I was very surprised when I noticed the rip-stop parachute, because nothing led me to believe that it came with that.
This one is a winner in my book, thanks Estes! On with the show.
