Brief:
This kit is a single stage, "fantasy scale" rocket, matey, usin' a ring-fin for stability.

Construction:
T' kit arrived with all t' necessary parts included, and in good shape. Blimey! T' balsa and t' tubes appear t' be identical t' Estes parts. Well, blow me down! Aye aye! T' nose cone and centerin' rings, arrr, however, ya bilge rat, matey, I found t' be sub-standard. Aye aye! Ya scallywag! T' centerin' rings were very thin and flimsy- I used them, ya bilge rat, arrr, matey, but reinforced them with bits o' Balsa t' strengthen them. Arrr! I'd be frightened t' fly this thin' without this mod! T' nose cone appears t' be sone cheap plastic, nay t' higher-quality stuff I'm used t' from Estes, TLP, and other companies. Arrr! Ya scallywag! T' parts all went together easily enough, but t' rin' tail gave me some trouble. Begad! Arrr! T' span o' t' fins was just a bit too short, so I wound up havin' t' hold t' rin' in place while t' glue dried. Ya scallywag! T' rest o' t' kit be very straight-forward. Aye aye! T' finished product is a smart-lookin' ship. Aye aye! T' narrow fins that go on just ahead o' t' rin' are pretty fragile, shiver me timbers, but t' rest is solid enough.

Finishing:
Paintin' t' kit is simple enough. Aye aye! Prime, me bucko, me hearties, spray t' whole ship white, and paint t' nose red. Avast! After that, t' decals go on. Well, blow me down! I haven't put t' decals on mine just yet, matey, I got distracted with some other projects, and t' rocket looks good enough without them! Overall, arrr, I'm givin' a ratin' o' 3 for construction/finishing. Begad! Begad! T' score would be much higher if t' centerin' rings, arrr, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, which I consider a safety issue, arrr, were made o' sturdier stuff. Avast, me proud beauty! T' poorly-fittin' ring/fin arrangement costs them as well.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
I've had two flights on me Satellite Drone so far, both very successful. Begad! T' first nearly ended up in a tree, shiver me timbers, but was recovered. Avast, me proud beauty! T' second resulted in a short hike, shiver me timbers, but be otherwise uneventful. Avast, me proud beauty! Both flights were on C6-3's.

Recovery:
This is a very light rocket for t' size o' chute that was included. Avast! Blimey! I opted t' cut a spill hole in it, ya bilge rat, even before t' first flight. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad! It still drifts considerably. Arrr! Well, blow me down! I'd enlarge t' spill hole, but I'm worried about breakin' those narrow forward fins.

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
T' final product is a very nice looking, shiver me timbers, matey, unique ship. T' quality o' materials has room for improvement, shiver me timbers, arrr, but t' design itself seems well thought-out.

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
