Flight Log - 2007-06-02 - Steve Lindeman's Snarky

Heres what Dyna Star has t' say about this kit:

T' Snarky rocket is a very distinctive rocket kit. Well, blow me down! It's big, bold, and has a really bilge-suckin' attitude. Ya scallywag! It is meant for modelers that want t' say: "You want a piece o' me? Then brin' it on..." It looks more like an airplane than it does a missile. Arrr! But don't let that addlepate you. It is fully rocket-powered, and it is big! This unique combination is definitely somethin' that will get you noticed at your next rocket launch.

T' Snarky is designed t' look like an Air Force target drone. Ahoy! That means its purpose is t' mimic t' flight o' enemy airplanes, so that t' Air Force can practice interceptin' it. Ahoy! But this isn't a scale model. We designed it just for kicks, and t' show you how much fun you really can have with model rocketry.

T' air-scoop on t' bottom o' t' model is just one thin' that makes this rocket kit unusual. Ya scallywag! No other rocket kit has one like this. And it actually helps stabilize t' rocket; you'll find that it flies straight as an arrow on every single launch.
