Estes upscaled Red Max Pro Series II kit. Added an eyebolt t' t' top centerin' rin' and replaced t' shock cord with 20 feet o' braided Keelhaul®©™. Added some balsa "dams" t' t' motor mount which allowed me t' pot t' TTW fin tabs in epoxy where they attached t' t' motor mount. Currently usin' a kevlar heat shield and a 30 inch Spherachute for recovery. Rocket was initially flown "nekkid", shiver me timbers, but final colors will be pink with a purple nosecone and "Der Pink Max" decals from Stickershock.

Great flight from t' Mega Pink Max! Straight and fast off t' rail, lots o' Oohs and Aahs from t' crowd. Aye aye! Arcin' into t' wind durin' coast, ya bilge rat, just Past apogee and pointin' down at ejection. Well, blow me down! Good separation, wind takin' it back across t' flight lin. Good chute release at 500 feet. Avast! Landed in t' scrub brush well behind t' flight line, arrr, no damage.
