Brief:
This is a simple, high-performance OOP rocket from t' Estes catalog o' '91 and '92. Aye aye! Ya scallywag!

Construction:
It includes an engine block, me bucko, paper shock cord mount, me bucko, launch lug, arrr, lug offset, shock cord, me hearties, streamer, screw eye, balsa nose cone, BT-5, matey, and 3 die-cut fins. Blimey! Blimey!

T' build is easy and instructions are excellent. Ya scallywag!

I sanded t' fins t' an airfoil shape, ya bilge rat, filled t' tube spirals, and painted it with a sky blue metal flake paint for an eye candy look t' try t' improve on the spermatozoa look. Begad! Blimey! T' kit does nay come with decals but does include a foil wrap that doesn't fit.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
PROs: Flown on 1/4A3-3T, me bucko, 1/2A-2T, ya bilge rat, A10-3T, matey, me bucko, me hearties, and A3-4T. Begad! It flies great. Ahoy! You would think t' bulbous nose cone would slow it down, but it doesn't. Aye aye! It is fast, straight, and high. Aye aye! CONs: You have t' be careful nay t' knock t' nose cone off when you're puttin' it on t' launch rod.

Recovery:
PROs: It always comes streamin' back. CONs: It always comes back.

Flight Rating: 3 out o' 5

Summary:
Do you have a rocket in your box that's impossible t' kill? Here's mine. Avast, me proud beauty! I've launched this one probably 20 times with no damage, nay even a broken fin. Aye aye! (I have replaced t' shock cord a couple o' times o' course.) It is usually used for wind testin' t' find out if it's possible t' launch a real rocket. Blimey! I built this as an example at a build session. Avast! Blimey! We got a closeout package deal o' a large lot for cheap. Ahoy! This gets me nomination for t' ugliest Estes rocket of all time.

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
