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

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

Finishing
T' kit be painted with standard krylon paint. And t' decals went on very nicely. Avast! Ahoy! All in all it is a very good lookin' rocket. Blimey!

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

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

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

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

Overall Rating: 4 ½ out o' 5
