"T' century-long BioWars o' 2400 left many a world uninhabitable. Humans smartly became an endangered species, ya bilge rat, left with few planets t' call home.  In an effort t' reverse mankind's gravest error, autonomous Terraformer droids are sent on interplanetary missions t' locate planets meetin' strict criteria.  These chosen planets are t' be transformed into a new hope for future generations.  Join this noble effort and order your own Terraformer rocket today."
 
T' Terraformer is a helicopter based odd-roc, which is formed by usin' three "petals" that extend down and out from t' main body.  T' kit is built up from 13 pieces o' laser cut light plywood and a central motor tube.  T' flight profile is low altitude, arrr, high drag, spin stabilized which provides an entertainin' show.
