Construction:
Has a pre-slotted airframe, a 33" fore-recovery airframe, ya bilge rat, a 17" aft-recovery airframe, arrr, and a nose cone. Ya scallywag! Uses (4) G-10 fins, (4) centerin' rings, matey, (2) pistons, matey, and a bulk plate. Blimey! T' CPR 3000 comes with mounts, matey, shiver me timbers, cannisters, me hearties, me bucko, couplers, matey, me hearties, o-rings and an aluminum threaded coupler and sleeve. Aye aye! Well, blow me down! It also comes with a D-ring, shiver me timbers, safety switch, matey, safety switch wire, arrr, piston straps, tubular shock cords and (2) launch lugs.

Very good instructions with lots o' illustrations. Aye aye! Assembly be easy t' follow and in a logical order. Avast, me proud beauty! Very little sandin' had t' be done on t' centerin' rings. Care must be used when installin' t' CPR 3000 threaded aluminum coupler system. Begad! Ya scallywag! Blimey! T' alignment has t' be perfect or when you thread t' two body tubes together t' body tubes won't meet properly. Begad! Ahoy! Blimey! Trial fit everythin' first. Remember t' sand everythin' where epoxy is used. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! I used 90 minute epoxy on t' entire rocket, except when first settin' t' fins, where I used 5 minute epoxy. Begad! Aye aye! Blimey! T' Ace hardware brand works well. Begad! Blimey! This is a very sturdy rocket.

Finishing:
I used an auto primer, shiver me timbers, and painted it usin' Rustoleum metallic paints. Ya scallywag! I faded t' paint from dark blue t' silver at t' nose. Aye aye! T' rocket doesn't come with decals, me bucko, except one for t' CPR 3000 and one for t' PML logo. As with paintin' any rocket, arrr, arrr, arrr, allow enough time for t' paint t' dry.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
This rocket will fly on anythin' from an I200 29mm t' a K185 54mm without glassin' t' rocket and installin' a longer motor tube. Avast, me proud beauty! Use talc when installin' t' altimeter and on t' piston tubes. Avast, me proud beauty! If t' electric matches won't fit thru t' small hole in t' ejection cannisters, you can thread them thru from t' top. Ya scallywag! T' CoPilot altimeter instructions tell you how t' test t' system before you go t' t' launch pad, me bucko, matey, do it. Blimey! Also, me bucko, when you arm t' system at t' pad, me hearties, it will beep 3 times, me hearties, and keep repeating. Avast, me proud beauty! This is tellin' you that t' system is ok. Well, blow me down! Because o' t' piston system, shiver me timbers, no waddin' is needed. Avast! I installed an Aero Pack 54mm Kwik-Switch motor retainer. Ya scallywag! VERY easy t' use. I flew it on a J415 and it reached an altitude o' 5,809 ft. Avast! T' flight be straight and t' recovery system worked flawlessly.

Recovery:
T' drogue chute is in t' aft body tube, and t' main is in t' fore body tube. Aye aye! Ahoy! T' piston system is easy t' assemble. Recovery was fine, arrr, but one piston got chipped.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
This rocket really looks good, me hearties, and is sturdy enough t' have many good flights. Avast! I think t' CPR 3000 system along with t' copilot works very well.
