This is pretty easy to assemble - can be done in 24 hours (there is some gluing which must dry before flying). Launched it with an A8-3 and it flew fine; it's rather on the heavy side (has some ball bearings in it for balance), so it probably only got 40 feet off the ground. It glided well. Then I tried it with a B6-5, I think it was, and it flew about 70 feet up, but also over to the side (the thing's just not as stable as a plain rocket). The longer pause before ejection was a problem - it barely popped before hitting the ground. I would use a four second delay, maximum. Overall, very cool to see it gliding. I don't think its life expectancy is too long, though - one good prang and it's a goner. Fun while it lasts, like cherry blossoms.

Launch the Eagle Boost Glider and watch it glide back to earth! A fun boost glider for both the novice and expert rocketeer. The assembly of the glider and power pod is nearly foolproof and takes the complexity out of trimming and launching rocket boosted gliders.
