Aurora J. ★★★★★

Watched this thing hit maybe 800 feet on a D engine and it looked incredible the whole way up. The 38-inch body makes it a real head-turner at the launch field, even if it's a bit of a pain to transport.

Andrew ★★★★★

I've built a lot of kits and this one goes together fast thanks to the pre-finished parts. The ICBM styling looks mean on the pad, and it still flies straight on a D engine. My son keeps asking when we can launch it again.

Robert ★★★★★

The 38-inch body really stands out on the launch pad, way bigger than the Estes kit I used to fly. Fit and finish on the fins was clean, and it went together in about an evening. First flight on a D engine was straight and stable, no wobble at all.
