This is one cool little rocket. About 14" tall & takes standard 18mm engines. The transition, nose cone and fins are balsa. I smeared Elmer's carpenters wood filler over all the balsa and sanded smooth with 220 sandpaper and primered. as you can see in the pics that the balsa pieces turned out real nice.
It comes with a 12" parachute however i dont feel comfy sending it up there on a C engine on a parachute. think Estes Wizard...... I made up a 30" crepe paper streamer instead which fits nicely.... I cant wait to fly it as it is already becoming one of my favorites..
