This is my go-to kit for burning up G and H motors. The four fin design gives dead straight, non-spinning flights. Straightforward build and very rugged. I have over 20 flights on mine. This is one of two kits I recommend in our club for L1, (the other is the Loc Hi Tech. It builds easily, offers good flights on 29mm hobby line or single use G motors as prep and a nice 1800-2000' flight on most cert low H motors.
Bought this kit for my level one certification. I upgraded it with the loc 38mm retainer and a 6'' electronics bay. I also stretched it 12'' using loc's tube cut to make it a little more dual deploy friendly in the future. The payload bay for the main if doing dual deploy is a little tight considering the nose cone shoulder and avbay shoulder/hardware, so stretching it adds stability and more room. Overall a stable, fast flyer! Did 2193ft at 306mph on an h135. Cant wait to go a little higher and faster now
Got my Jr. L1 cert a few months ago flying a forte on an H123. It flew beautifully with no problems whatsoever. I highly recommend this kit for any juniors or adults looking to get certified or get into hpr. Thanks LOC!
Awesome looking rocket! Number 2 in my build pile.
I think I have a rocket addiction. Lol
Great value for the dollar. Really does come with everything - harnesses, rail buttons, etc. If you’re looking to push it, fins are probably too thin to survive Mach, and if you’re converting to DD the upper bay will be a little tight.
