    Great purchase at an excellent sale price.

    It is always rewarding to support companies I enjoy through my purchases. This time the reward was doubled by excellent sale pricing on the Estes site. Thank you for passing the specials on to rocketeers.
    I have several kits to build and it is great to see the consistency in the kit qualities.

    On a separate note, years ago Estes products included a template for actual size of fins. This is extremely useful to repair rockets from hard landings (and storage accidents at home.). It would be fantastic to see these included for all kits!

    Nice Rocket

    Expected Estes attention to detail. Truth told...I haven't built it yet as I have ordered multiple kits from them recently. It's tough to choose a rocket to start on as they all are appealing. I'll get around to it.
