This kit was my Junior. Level 1 and I must say it is a beautiful kit. Some people say this rocket is not good for certifications due to the fact that the fins hang below the body.

This was a really easy kit to build. I spoke to LOC briefly regarding the fins, ...

This kit requires epoxy for assembly of the ...
