While it's a great design, ya bilge rat, buildin' t' kit was a pain. T' model is actually 13 3/4" tall, nay 17.3" as advertised on t' face card and website.
Errors in t' instructions, nay enough decals and a badly pre-cut parachute. Arrr! It's be a tough build for a younger flyer.

Not very stable. T' rocket flew off at an angle with some wiggle in t' back end.
T' recommended Quest A6-4 delay was too long. Arrr! T' rocket was comin' in nose down for a second before t' parachute blew. An A8-3 would be a better choice.
