Thanks for buying Fliskits. Hated to see another rocket company go out of business. Good luck in your endeavors.

The website is almost there. Turned out to be more work than we anticipated.

Yes, Jim is still involved in design work. Once we get most of the current kits available, we will start on designing new.

We now have a limited number of Deuces Wild and Tartar's available

I predict a good demand for the MicroMaxx Saturn V. Our club has an annual March MicroMaxx Madness launch. A few of us flew the Quest Saturn V plastic bricks, which fly OK if the fins are enlarged, but do only about 50', and if they land hard, the NC snaps off.

So here is the latest fro Fliskits

We could not wait any longer for the website to get fully baked, so we have launched a skeleton version to facilitate ordering. The website is still a work in progress. We have more kits than are shown on the website and we are adding more to the site regularly. If you are interested in a kit you do not see, please send us a message via the website and we will make every attempt to accommodate.

We appreciate your patience as we attempt to get Fliskits back up and running.

Agree the current website link should be spelled out.
I tried using the bookmark I had for Fliskits old website, www.fliskits.com , and the old full site is not there, it redirects to a single page with 9 products for sale which are probably the temporary sale selections that eshenderson was referring to.

Sorry, thought I had.

www.fliskits.com

You are correct that this is the temporary site as we could not wait any longer. New kits are being added regularly.

When Jim announced he was closing, everything was still available so many bought what had been on the back burner or duplicates of much loved kits. I hope sales are good, don’t get discouraged if things are slow initially.
