Only 17 inches tall, the kit features ablow molded plastic nose cone, laser-cut balsa fins and a rugged 24mm diameter motor mount. Flights with an Enerjet motor will go to almost 2,500 feet. Then your 'Lil Grunt will recover gently on the big 3-inch x 36-inch nylon streamer. Includes big, easy-to-apply self-adhesive decals.
