Great rocket for the advanced builder, could use some mods, launch is slow like larger rockets, so you can track easier. I would use epoxy only and add blunt nose cones to tops of the top pods for lower drag, install an internal ejection baffle, more reliable nylon parachute, with Pro2 shock cord and Estes threaded plastic 24mm engine retainer and leave out the engine block. Laminate fins with printer paper and C/A adhesive for lightweight no fluttered launch. Personally I mod most of my model rockets for higher impulse, slower burn time and for quicker refurbishment. Hope this helps everyone and have fun :-)
