Haven't got it yet. But everything I've ordered from Walmart such as this rocket and my RC car and speakers in the past and movies. Have been very very excellent excellent shape very happy with everything.
An interesting build
The Tazz is the latest iteration over many years of rockets with spin-type recovery. It is very well-designed and is interesting to build. It is durable and has survived many surprisingly high flights. We have noticed that the ejected engine pod with streamer and the spinning Tazz rocket have been landing very close to one another. An improvement for this rocket would be to have the kit come with a slightly heavier body tube, because the substantial wing assemblies tend to flex the relatively thin body tube walls. Nevertheless, this rocket flies beautifully.
Takes me back
We built and flew the Gyroc years ago. This updates takes me back to when I was a kid. I recommending waiting to tape on the fins until after painting.
