Three Bandits is a pretty good kit, and an unmatched value.
I built a set several years ago. They went together fast and flew well. These are small rockets, using the tiny engines. They will still get up there and get stuck in trees. I found a streamer to be a better recovery than included parachutes for grassy fields.

Note that this exact kit is $13 normal everyday price at Hobby Lobby.

What are you using for a streamer? Just Orange or red plastic?

I've used surveying tape, which isn't great. It sometimes melts with the ejection charge and won't unfurl.
What seems to work best is the paper that those waxy envelopes are made from. I think it came from used USPS envelopes like the flat rate ones and such.
