2010-06-15Madcow Rocketry Solar Express (Kit)  Review
Brief: The Solar express from Madcow Rocketry is a mid-power rocket kit that flies on 29mm F and G
motors. It's a great addition to an established mid-power fleet, and will fly on a wide range of mid-power motors (or
probably even some Hs if you're willing to try it). The quality of... [More]

2009-10-27Pemberton Technologies 3FNC (Kit)  Review

insane. It utilizes a unique "reward... [More]

2009-08-09Red River Rocketry SlipStream (Kit)  Review
Brief: The SlipStream from Red River Rocketry is a nice 3FNC rocket. I like the look of it, and it was an enjoyable build. This was my first low power rocket in a while, and it was nice to build something small and simple again.
The SlipStream would be a good first rocket and makes for nice... [More]
