HV ARCAS

 

The Arcas is my second kit from Aerotech. (First kit was a Mustang) I had no trouble building the kit, as it came with quality parts that easily fit together. The only modification I made was that I replaced the included elastic shockcord with a Safety Line, from Pratt Hobbies. The rocket flies great on virtually all of Aerotech's mid-power rocket motors.
