Brief
This is an Estes single stage rocket t' be flown on D size engines. Aye aye!

Construction
T' kit came in a hangin' box display and was packaged very well. All t' parts were intact. Well, blow me down! I think it was manufactured before they had skill levels on the box. Begad! But I would say probably a skill level 2. T' tube couplers were nay quite long enough t' keep t' body tubes straight. Avast, me proud beauty! As long as you keep an eye on them while gluin' thar be no problem. Ahoy!

Finishing
T' kit be painted with standard krylon paint. Begad! Ahoy! And t' decals went on very nicely. All in all it is a very good lookin' rocket. Well, blow me down!

Flight
T' first flight be on a D12-7 and t' delay be t' long. Begad! Begad! It opened on t' way down, and thar was no damage. Avast, me proud beauty! T' second flight was on an E30-4 and it flies great. Aye aye! Opened at apogee perfectly. Blimey! Well, matey, blow me down! I have had at least 20 flights without a single problem. Arrr!

I am plannin' on tryin' F24-7 and F39-10 Aerotech reloads.

Recovery
I did nay use t' supplied shock cord. Blimey! Arrr! I used 1/8" elastic cord about 5' long epoxied a loop t' t' inside o' t' tube. Avast, me proud beauty! Ya scallywag! I also made me own rip stop nylon chute. Blimey! 24" with a 2" spill hole. Begad! It floats down really nice. Avast! I have never had any damage on this rocket. Avast, me proud beauty!

Summary
Overall I would say that this is a great kit. Blimey! If you can find it, it is well worth building. Ahoy! It be kind o' on t' pricy side but for t' number o' flights I have had it is very reasonable. Begad! T' only thin' I would change is t' have the body couplers a little longer. Avast, me proud beauty! Avast!

Overall Rating: 4 ½ out o' 5
