Each item below is taken from actual email or mail order, direct from customers of FlisKits products:

·         Simply WOW!!! Great website, easy navigation, fast, easy ordering (even with PayPal). I ordered two kits; Deuce's Wild! and the Richter Recker (yes I like clusters). They came fast!!! Packaging is great, instructions very clear, high quality parts and I love that the fins are NOT die-cut. This leaves the builder some options with what ultimately gets built!!! - M.D.

• Jim, it appears you have a great service. Not many vendors send their customers an email stating their order has been shipped or packed. I really appreciate that!  To be honest I was quite impressed with the kit selection you offer. I will be ordering again. I've already told several people in our club about you.  Thanks again, and can't wait to get the kits! Jerry

·         Greetings from Black Hills Rocketry Club here in South Dakota. I was recently 'bombarded' with emails from a club member concerning your rockets. He was very impressed with your service, and ALL of us were impressed with the rockets he brought to 'show off'. The Deuces Wild is really that, wild! Not only LOOKS cool, but FLIES even better!.       T.E.

·        You deserve special praise for your EXCELLENT instructions and tips. Someone who has never built a rocket kit could easily build a Flea. Dave

·         The FlisKits Overdrive is very slick model made from some of the highest quality parts available, making it a real pleasure to build and fly.  Carl

·         This is, typically for Fliskits, a VERY good kit overall. At only just over £11 including shipping from the USA, this kit is exceptional value for money. Dan

·         The FlisKits TumbleWeed is a very cool little kit! Don't let the small package fool you as there are some building challenges in store, but the results reminded me once again of the old Nostalgic rockets from days of old, when quality and classic design prevailed over mass production. Carl

·         I heartily recommend this kit (Cheetah!). This is another high quality rocket kit from FlisKits, Inc. The kit components are first rate, finish nicely and come together to make an extremely high flying model. For those modelers looking for a step up from "ready to fly" kits, this will be a refreshing, attractive, sleek addition to their fleet. - Russ A.

·         The FlisKits ACME Spitfire is an amazingly stable, absolutely cool model that is a MUST-HAVE for everyone’s silo. FlisKits has been at it again, burning the midnight oil to bring you probably the most unique model rocket kit ever to be mass produced. C.T.

·         This FlisKit's Corona kit reminded me of the cool 70's and 80's Estes kits. It's not just one you glue together and slap on the launch pad. It takes thinking and a little skill. It's fun to build, and it provides a nice reward when you are done. I see no way of improving it at all. It's a super kit for the price, as all components and instructions are excellent. Overall, I give it a 5/5. - Greg D.

·         I bought 4 (Deuce’s Wild! kits) when the balsa was still warm.  this is one cool, kool, kewl kit. RANDY

·         This project (FlisKits Tres) is such a change from ESTES kits. I am having a blast with it. Karl D.

·         Well done Fliskits! For every high performance rocket I build from now on, I will put a Fliskits PopLug kit on it. The Flea is my all time favourite rocket! Phil (UK)

·         I wish the hobby shop across the street from my house would get FlisKits. Ryan

·         For those of you who have looked at the Praetor and wondered about buying it, go for it. Another great kit form FlisKits and it has that out of the ordinary look to it. I love it!! Another kudos to FlisKits!! Bill

·         I never realized the details of the inner tube fins (Long OverDue). This is indeed another cool design. Jim

·         I’ve dealt with many vendors but I can say that Jim Flis at Fliskits has got to have the best service out there. If ya need something fast this is the company to go to even with weird and odd orders they are the best in my book. Bow

·         Having dealt with you as a customer & a vendor. I would like you to know that we model our customer service on yours. You and your company are excellent to deal with and should be considered the gold standard for rocket related customer service. Mike
