Impressive Rocket Review by Aaron

I saw this at Pope's Hobby Land. I had to buy it. I've been thrilled since I opened the package XD. I'm still hoping to get the Black Star Voyager. (Posted on 1/24/13)

awesome rocket Review by Kevin

If you've RC planes as well as rockets, nothing about the basic build of this rocket should be too difficult. The greatest difficulty will be in properly prepping the surfaces for finishing - be ready for plenty of sanding and filling to get a good finish. The stock paint scheme actually helps hide some of the potential problem areas. When flying the Cosmic Interceptor, I would strongly suggest using E-impulse composite motors. The recommended E9-4 was too weak to provide a straight flight in anything but absolute calm winds. Low thrust combined with any wind results in a strong tendency to weathercock. Use a higher thrust engine and you can overcome this and turn in some spectacular flights. (Posted on 10/31/12)

Great-looking design Review by surdumil

Wow! Another breathtaking design from Estes! I'm eagerly looking forward to building one of these. The size, shape and intricate details should make this a very impressive model. (Posted on 7/11/12)

Cool mods Review by Lester

I looked up the Part Number for the nose cone on this one, and it is the same as the nose as the "Interceptor E". I figure that this is the same size. Very interesting mods. Looks like they eliminated all the plastic pieces except the nose cone. Should be a fun build. (Posted on 7/2/12)
