Brief:
This is a larger low power rocket with a 3" body and 24mm motor mount. Ahoy! My first impression be it's a Big Daddy, but t' nose cone is longer and t' body thus is longer. Well, blow me down! Twin parachute recovery.

Construction:
High quality parts. Avast, me proud beauty! Body Tube: dia=3" lg=14". Well, blow me down! Nose cone: dia=3" lg=14.5". Aye aye! Avast! Motor tube: dia=24mm lg=5". Avast! 2 centerin' rings. 1 engine hook. Ya scallywag! 1 motor block. Two 12" parachutes. Aye aye! Well, blow me down! Elastic Shock cord. 4 laser cut balsa fins.

This is a straightforward build. Avast! A nice large body tube t' work in, ya bilge rat, 4 fins attachin' t' t' tube. Avast, me proud beauty! My preference would be for through t' wall fins, but with epoxy fillets, t' fins seem solidly attached. Well, blow me down! Avast, ya bilge rat, me proud beauty! I used t' Estes fin alignment guide for placin' t' fins. Aye aye! T' only modification I made be t' add a Keelhaul®©™® shield t' protect t' chutes. Ahoy! Avast, me proud beauty!

Finishing:
I went with t' paint scheme that comes on t' packaging, me hearties, arrr, green and black. Blimey! Begad! It came out decent, ya bilge rat, just don't look closely at t' nose cone.... Begad! Arrr! Diagonal tapin' is hard. Ya scallywag! There was one decal which went on easily, and t' clear is really clear. Well, shiver me timbers, blow me down!

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
I have flown this twice on an E9-6. Avast! Well, matey, blow me down! Good flights. Well, blow me down! T' first flight was a windy day and one o' t' chutes tangled. There was a minor crack at t' base o' one fin, but it is still flyable. Well, blow me down! Probably just cosmetic. Well, blow me down! Avast, me proud beauty! T' second flight was perfect.

Recovery:
T' shock cord be t' typical elastic glued t' paper and then t' t' body tube. I will probably use Keelhaul®©™® thread tied and glued t' t' motor mount and then tie an elastic cord t' that in t' future. T' Keelhaul®©™® blanket will save on waddin' for this wide mouth rocket. Be careful with t' twin chutes as they will tangle, but they do look good comin' down. Ya scallywag!

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
Through t' wall fins would improve t' sturdiness o' this kit if one wants t' fly it on an AeroTech F motor. Aye aye! It is a nice lookin' rocket with slow flights up t' about 650'on an E motor. Ahoy! Blimey! If you like clusters, this would be a good kit to add 3 or 4 motors to. Aye aye!

Overall Rating: 4 out o' 5
