 Pleasantly surprised |
| Review Date: May 4, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Robert Dobbs, |
I am very happy with this purchase. The driver software installed quickly. Within 5 minutes of opening the box, I was blasting co-workers with surprising accuracy. The unit works as advertised without any modifications. The firing range is about 15 feet when fired from a desktop. The projectile speed is fast enough to startle anyone you fire at, but slow enough to not cause injury. All three rocket launch tubes work equally well.
The targeting software has a red dot that shows the current x and y targeting offset relative to the origin, which is a nice feature for pinpoint accuracy on successive shots.
After I get done bombarding my co-workers into submission, I'll take this home and unleash its destructive power on my kids! Well worth the money. |
Great Toy!

| This missile launcher is the coolest toy I have ever bought! All 3 missiles work equally well and the range is farther than I thought! It fires about 20'. It's fast but doesn't hurt at all! The missiles are made of foam with a rubber tip so you don't feel anything! The driver software installed in like 5 seconds! In 10 seconds within opening the box I was shooting my parents with little missiles. If you're looking for a fun toy for your kids for Christmas, Quanza, Haunnukah, whatever, get this right now! |
Have fun and if you're a nerd you'll love this toy

| I bought this toy to take it apart and build a webcam servo. So my family overseas can follow the steps of my active child I ended up to buy two of them. For the for the original purpose the other for my own fun. Thanks Enigma for the tip - that is a great review! |
Great after modifications

| My wife bought me this toy for Christmas, and out of the box one of the three rockets flew maybe 10 feet, and the other two rarely left the launcher. Being the mechanic/nerd that I am, I pulled off the feet on the bottom and began to dis-assemble the toy. A very interesting design inside. The problem with the launcher was the spring loaded plastic plunger (not rubber) that leaked air for each rocket. I applied some vasoline to the tube that the plunger rides in, on the plunger, and several of the mechanical sliding surfaces and gears for lubrication and sealant. Be careful to watch the routing of the wires and orientation of the top piece to the middle piece (two buttons need to be depressed for auto-ranging, my first attempt was backwards). It now launches the rockets ~20 feet, but the process was fairly technical. |
