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

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

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

I am plannin' on tryin' F24-7 and F39-10 Aerotech reloads. Avast, me proud beauty! Ahoy!

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

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

Overall Rating: 4 ½ out o' 5
