Custom Rockets S.L.V. Begad! (Kit)

Review

T' Custom Rockets S.L.V. Aye aye! is a futuristic rocket kit with three different sizes o' body tube, two different card stock tube transitions, and six small fins. Well, blow me down! T' manufacturer lists it as a Skill Level 3, and I feel that it is more o' a 2, with a few tricky spots. Avast, me proud beauty! 1 plastic nosecone with ... [More]

   

Estes Super Neon XL (Kit)

Review

Brief: T' Super Neon XL from Estes is a modified tube-fin rocket with a beefy appearance and an E engine mount. Begad! As one o' t' taller Estes kits, me bucko, it is certain t' draw a crowd among t' E2X flyers. Arrr! Construction: T' only exceptional thin' about this kit be t' high-quality balsa nose ...

Overpowered ejection blew 3 o' t' 6 shroud lines, shiver me timbers, rocket came down quickly, but sustained no damage other than t' parachute. Blimey! Blimey! It will fly again! Blimey! - E20-7 - NOVAAR [More]

Estes Renegade-D

Flight

Wicked fast boost, strong ejection charge popped t' motor out o' t' mount, and also popped 2 shroud lines. Chute wrapped around t' tail and didn't open until about 25 feet from t' ground, no damage. - E20-7 - NOVAAR [More]

   

Estes Renegade-D (Kit)

Review

T' latest incarnation o' t' Estes Renegade kit has changed t' rocket from a 2-stage t' a single-stage, probably because o' t' booster stage's tendency t' semi-glide recover at a rather high rate o' speed. Begad! My daughter chose t' kit at t' local hobby shop, because "lots o' fins are cool, ... [More]
