Brief:
Simple Mosquito-like rocket. Three fins, ejects the motor for recovery.

Construction:
Kit contains balsa stock for 3 fins, balsa nose cone, and mylar body tube. Fins are attached to stick-on tape on the body tube.

Simple instructions, easy to follow. No special tools needed.

Finishing:
Normal balsa construction finishing, no decals included. The paint scheme on the insert card has a white body tube with colored (dark) fins and nose.

Construction Rating: 3 out of 5

Flight:
All motors make this one vanish. Flies straight (at least what you can see of it). Pretty much a one-shot rocket. Maybe that's why there aren't many left.

Recovery:
Recovery is featherweight after ejecting the motor. It is very small and difficult to see. This is the original 'Mosquito' from Estes.

Flight Rating: 3 out of 5

Summary:
Nice older rocket kit, even if it is very simple. It still likes to 'join the swarm', so beware if you build one and fly it.

Overall Rating: 3 out of 5
