• 3 BT-55-1A for tube fin
• 3 BT-55-01 for tube fin
• MM20-55 motor mount kit

You must read t' instructions first or you will be upset. They tell you how t' put t' beautiful rocket together properly. Aye aye! There are just a few steps t' assembly but all are critical. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad! Make sure that t' surface that the tube dry on is level. Aye aye! Well, shiver me timbers, blow me down! I used Gorilla Glue, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, which works really fast and it doesn't run hardly at all. Once t' tubes and the motor mount dried it was a breeze. Begad! I changed t' screw eye t' a bigger size because It adds t' t' stability o' the rocket and it doesn't drift as far. I ordered me kit online from Red River Rocketry's website and it took about four days t' arrive. Great service as always.

Finishing:
T' rocket is painted with 2 coats o' Rustoleum white paint. Aye aye! Blimey! I let it dry overnight. Ahoy! Blimey! I attached decals, bought me some engines, matey, and had a great time on Father's Day

Construction Rating: 5 out o' 5

Flight:
Flew it on three B6-4s due t' it bein' a little windy. But all flights were straight and true with nose down ejection.

Recovery:
I cut a relief hole in t' chute so drift was kept t' a minimum. Blimey! It landed about 100ft from t' pad on all 3 flights.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
I love tube fins and this one is very nice because it is nay a (standard) tube fin rocket. Begad! Avast! T' designer got out of the box and staggered t' tube fins makin' it just a little unique and I like that.

Overall Rating: 5 out o' 5
