Storm Launcher

Today I bought a Storm Launcher the full size version.

I am a little disappointed with it.

The main problem is that it has some power, but just not quite enough to really make it worth something.

It can run across the grass for around 25 to 45 yards before it grinds to a stop.

I tried about 10 times at full throttle and was never able to make it 50 yards.

It can’t start out one the grass, but I was able to find a small hill with enough dirt to get it going then once it had some speed then it would continue to drive on the grass for a little ways.

So it’s a little exciting, but then you have to walk 40 yards pick it up and carry it back to the dirt hill to try it again.

That kind of takes a lot of the fun out of it.

I tried it in the street but the controls are not accurate enough to really keep it going straight down the street.

A small bump will send it off in some direction and you can’t really correct it, so you’re off on the grass again, and walking to carry it back again.
