Mini Squat a solid starting point
Posted by Kirk Groeneveld on 10th Mar 2019
I scored a mini squat on a Black Friday sale, and got it before Xmas. The staff was very helpful, giving me separate shipping to Ohio at a reasonable rate. The kit is pretty straight-forward, with sturdy parts and quality components. Only had one bit of confusion in the instructions, but was able to follow along without difficulty. There may be some assumption that you've built before or know the what and why's with CG and CP, but those values are given in the specs. Upon completion, I only had to wait for fair weather near spring to launch, with D12-5 & D12-7 on hand. One observation, the body tube is pretty completely packed with the shock cord, kevlar cord, nylon chute and shoot protector. Not much room for anything else, but this didn't impact my two initial flights this week. The success of this kit inspires me to buy with confidence from MadCow.
