Brief:
The Falcon is a great rocket for beginners. No painting required! Decals and fantastic altitudes.
Construction:
It was packed well but instructions weren't that clear. Very easy construction. It really is the engine parts, body, and nose cone. Very simple. Basic tools needed.
Finishing:
Decals were good. A good idea is to sand the engine mount to make an easier fit.
Construction Rating: 4 out of 5
Flight:
The recommended engines are A8-3, B6-4, and C6-5. I have used two B6-4's and one C6-5. It requires 4-6 sheets of wadding. It is very easy to prepare for flight.
Recovery:
It only has a small amount of damage but that is common for very close recovery.
Flight Rating: 4 out of 5
Summary:
Easy to build, but it should of had more decals.
Overall Rating: 4 out of 5

The kit is fairly easy to build and the instructions are excellent. I did make the following changes. I made a motor mount tube from an ESTES BT20 tube. The original is too thin and cheap. The original is too thin ...
