Great little rockets
We built these for our church, 10 yr old boys, activities group. They were easy to put together and all worked great. The boys and their parents, were surprised, with how high they went. Great price and great rockets.

Rockets
My son and I had a lot of fun with these rockets. I put a bigger motor in it, then lost it. I have already bought more.

Very nice starter rocket
If you want an Estes rocket that is easy to build so you can fly it fast this is a good choice. I've launched it a few times and it flies very well. If you get it, note that it uses Estes mini (13mm) engines that all end with the letter T, A3-4T for example.

Best literal bang for the buck
Easy to build and place structural stickers on. Launched it and then lost it due to wind drift. Worked exactly as expected. Will buty10 more!

A 'Beginner' Lesson in Immediate Disappointment
This kit is less a "beginner rocket" and more a "disaster in a bag." The plastic fins are so flimsy and the adhesive so weak that the end snapped off launching it. The launch lug was crooked no matter how carefully I tried to align it. The grand finale was its one and only "flight." Upon ignition, it veered wildly off the pad, did a single, sad loop-the-loop, and then nosedived directly into the ground. It was less "Firehawk" and more "Fire-crash." Save your child's interest in STEM and your own sanity. This rocket is poorly designed, cheaply made, and guaranteed to end in tears. A truly catastrophic launch.
