Fun to Build

I had fun building mine, cant say that I have flown it yet but im sure it will fly great!!!
I didnt really care for the suggested colors, so I used mtn colors 94 Icarus Grey flat and sprayed gloss clear on the nose cone only I really like my color with the sharp siler and white decals as well as the Black and res decals I dont remember mine coming with plywood fins? (Hobby Lobby several years ago) But i do like working with the plywood fins on other estes Rockets. If you dont have one get one and Make it your own!!
