Rocketarium Mega Vortico Rocket Kit
These oddrocs fly straight up while spinning. Then, these oddrocs helicopter down, for a smooth landing.
If you're looking to mix up your rocket fleet, take the Mega Vortico for a spin.
This oddroc kit comes with seven (7) pieces of pre-cut lightweight plywood. Launch lug and motor tube are also included.  Fully illustrated instructions make assembly a breeze. Painting the rocket is optional.  Not for use on windy days. Use a short (1 foot) launch rod.

    Fun and easy Odd Rocket

    Posted by Tim M on 19th Aug 2018

    This rocket was very easy to assemble and durable.
    Be sure to only launch in light wind and position it about 12" from the end of the launch rod as the instructions say. It spins all the way up and helicopters down. It will arc considerably in flight with wind.
