Custom Rockets S.L.V. (Kit)

Review

The Custom Rockets S.L.V. is a futuristic rocket kit with three different sizes of body tube, two different card stock tube transitions, and six small fins. The manufacturer lists it as a Skill Level 3, and I feel that it is more of a 2, with a few tricky spots. 1 plastic nosecone with ... [More]

   

Estes Super Neon XL (Kit)

Review

Brief: The Super Neon XL from Estes is a modified tube-fin rocket with a beefy appearance and an E engine mount. As one of the taller Estes kits, it is certain to draw a crowd among the E2X flyers. Construction: The only exceptional thing about this kit is the high-quality balsa nose ... [More]

FlisKits Corona-2

Flight

Boosted, lit the sustainer, boost stage stuck around for the ride. Dead boost stage. Main BT got crimped on the way home. - C6-0/C6-5 - NOVAAR [More]

   

Estes Super Neon XL

Flight

On the D12, this rocket flew straight and true, and recovery was just as easy. Nice rocket to fly. - D12-5 - NOVAAR [More]

   

Estes Super Neon XL

Flight

Overpowered ejection blew 3 of the 6 shroud lines, rocket came down quickly, but sustained no damage other than the parachute. It will fly again! - E20-7 - NOVAAR [More]

   

Estes Renegade-D

Flight

Another perfect boost, good ejection, and gentle recovery. This rocket is a nice flier. - D12-5 - NOVAAR [More]

   

Estes Renegade-D

Flight

Beautiful flight, some corkscrewing - D12-5 - NOVAAR [More]

   

Estes Renegade-D

Flight

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

   

Estes Renegade-D (Kit)

Review

The latest incarnation of the Estes Renegade kit has changed the rocket from a 2-stage to a single-stage, probably because of the booster stage's tendency to semi-glide recover at a rather high rate of speed. My daughter chose the kit at the local hobby shop, because "lots of fins are cool, ... [More]
