In no time at all you will be at the flying field with the Drifter!

The Drifter assembles in just minutes! Simply slide the 4 fins into the fin can slots and you are ready for take-off! Reaching altitudes of 700 feet, add the BT-55 Booster Accessory (2257) and a D12-0 booster engine and watch this rocket soar way past 1,500 feet!
