Loved it!! Well worth the hard assembly!
The media could not be loaded. This product was quite a tedious build, considering there was sanding, priming, painting, gluing, and decals to apply, but I got a great video of the launch. The weight seemed to go toward the side where the shuttle was mounted, and as a result, the flight was not 100% successful, as the flight arc ended up nearly horizontal before the parachute deployed, and this happened over the parking lot of the park we launched at, so there was damage. I would love to do it all over again, but the assembly took longer than I would have liked. I would definitely recommend this kit for the patient person, and hope you do the paint and everything. It's worth it. Make sure you launch in a large grassy area, as you never know where you could land.

Multiple flights are not likely
Shipping took a while.. assembly somewhat challenging..I'd like higher quality materials to be used

Fun build
It was a fun rocket to built and fairly good instructions. This is not meant to be a first build or beginner rocket, but it goes together well and was designed nicely and good instructions.

nice looking can't wait to build it
This is an e series rocket you can use a D motor and launch the rocket but to use E motors you'll have to upgrade launchpad and controller which can be additional purchases

Christmas gift
Gave this to my 13-year old grandson for Christmas & he loved it. Easy for him to assemble since he is not a beginner. Quick shipping & as described.

Nice kit, not for beginners.

Take your time and test fit all parts before gluing.
Shuttle wings seem to be very thin and fragile, we'll see how the first flight goes.
