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

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

Finishing
T' kit was painted with standard krylon paint. Begad! Arrr! And t' decals went on very nicely. Arrr! All in all it is a very good lookin' rocket. Arrr! Avast, arrr, me proud beauty!

Flight
T' first flight was on a D12-7 and t' delay be t' long. It opened on t' way down, and thar was no damage. Avast! T' second flight be on an E30-4 and it flies great. Opened at apogee perfectly. Avast! 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. Arrr! Aye aye!

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

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

Overall Rating: 4 ½ out o' 5
