Getting this rocket together involves screwing the three legs onto the base, putting batteries in the base and wireless remote, and spinning the launch stand extension tubes onto one another. We had it done in about 10 minutes.Initial checkout proved that the bicycle pump wasn't going to work. It would have been exhausting and taken a half hour of manual labor for each launch. So I filled up our air compressor and took that out to the field. Setting 100 PSI on the compressor filled the launch base in about three seconds between each launch. Because of the no parachute design, the rockets landed within about thirty feet of the launcher. That made rocket retrieval fast. We were able to do several launches every couple of minutes. It was lots of fun and my son loved it!
Highly recommend!

My kids and I had a lot of fun with with rocket launcher. It's highly recommended for kids are intrested in science, physics and aerodynamics, or even if they're not! Set up easy but i would recommended filling it with air from a compressor rather than a manual air pump to save time and energy. This launcher and remote are both very durable. It's packed full of safety features including a tilt sensor, electronic valve-release system & wireless launcher all to ensure that the rockets launch safely. We were so impressed that the rockets launch up to 250 feet in the air! The rockets also drop within a 30 foot radius of the launcher to provide easier searching. I would like to find spare rockets to have around for when these rockets eventually get lost or broken but havent had luck finding them sold seperately just yet but hopefully soon. Overall, it's a great bonding experience with my kids ans we all enjoy it very much.
Nice kit

This is a nice kit for older kids.i like that it did not have a lot of pieces to put together. The instructions seem easy. But I did have an ussue getting the rockets to launch. I had a famiky member help me troubleshoot it per the booklet but it wouldn't launch. I could hear it click to launch, but it just wouldn't shoot. I do recommend if you gift this to someone be sure to gift a pump and the batteries as those are needed. Overall it's a nice kit for 14+. The remote gives commands too which is cool. It seems sturdy and there are 3 rockets included.
Great with a little patience!

Great toy, fantastic outdoor gift, with just a little patience required. At first our unit was expelling air out of the top and not the bottom. There is a black rubber stopper inside the unit that can get stuck when it should be moving freely. If you open the unit (including the clamps in the air tank) you can dislodge the stopper and the air will then dispense properly. We love that the rockets have cool images on them!
Fun!!

The NASA Air Rocket Launcher Kit is really easy to assemble and start launching. Assembly involves screwing the three legs onto the base, putting batteries in the base and wireless remote, and spinning the launch stand extension tubes onto one another. We had it done in about 10 minutes. We used our air compressor instead of a bicycle pump and it made the rockets launch really fast. I would say the rockets landed within 30 feet from us after going up in the air about 250 feet. This does require 4x AAA batteries and 1x 9v battery that is not included. The remote-control launch pad is simple to use as well. I love the quality and design of this rocket launcher and the kids and my husband love playing with it. Recommended for kids 14 and up but does have safety features. I highly recommend this!
Super cool birthday present for my 8 year old

Super cool birthday present for my 8 year old. It is a present so he has yet to open it BUT it looks super cool. IT is way more advanced than a typical remote control item. I cannot wait for him to open it up.
Fun and Educational

This rocket launcher kept my children’s attention for hours. They absolutely love playing with it and actually fight over it. Super fun and educational toy. That definitely is made extremely well. I also consider an educational toy as it is something that they can learn from also.
Blast off!

This is a really fun launcher! Took my kiddos and I about ten minutes to assemble. It was a little hard to pump with a bike tire pump at first, but they quickly got the hang of it. The launcher shoots the rocket really high - my kids were impressed and wanted to launch over and over again! Seems like a well made toy that will provide hours of fun and enjoyment.
Works really well and lots of fun!!

This NASA Air Rocket Launcher kit was very easy to set up. It took us less than 10 minutes to set it up. It is an outdoor toy, so you will have to play with it outside. You will need a pump to add air to the tank, and we place our rockets at the top. When it blasts off, it's pretty cool and seems safe for my kids. It comes with a very easy-to-use wireless remote that the kids and I really like, as it lets you send your rocket from a safe angle, and the rockets it comes with seem durable. It is great fun for us in our backyard, and we would recommend it.
Awesome!

This is fantastic. Easier to use an electric air pump to fuel stage one up. Stand back. The remote is very cool as it has LED indicators and it Talks. Tells when it is fueled up and ready to launch, tells if there is an error. 3,2,1, Blast OFF ! It goes WAY up. I mean this falcon 9 rocket flies to orbit fast! Nice thing is it comes pretty much strait back down allowing you to launch in smaller open areas. Need a large radius but rocket does come close to straight down making it easy to retrieve. I'll tell you what, Dad, Mom, Grandpop all will have as much fun as the child.
Doesn't work!! AVOID!!!

It doesn't work. Air is vented from the bottom instead of the top. Seems to be an error in manufacturing. Total dissapointment
