The SARK is a skill level 1 kit with 13mm engines as power source but not labeled as being part of the Mini Brute series. The rocket is recovered via a streamer after flights over 1000 feet. The kit features a two color paint scheme (red/white) with two color decals.
Availability: I've rated the SARK kit as very scarce simply due to its infrequent appearance on eBay. Expect to pay $25 to $30 for a nice problem free kit.
