Big Dog is big and basic. Standing over 32 inches tall, the kit features a blow molded plastic nose cone, laser-cut balsa fins and a rugged 24mm diameter motor mount. Flights with an Enerjet F44-8W will go to almost 2,200 feet. Then your Big Dog will recover gently on the big 16-inch nylon parachute. Kit includes big, easy-to-apply self-adhesive decals.
