T' instructions are very well done for this rocket. Ya scallywag! Lots o' pictures and easy t' understand step by step. This is a level 2 rocket and very easy t' put together but t' win' angles are very important t' t' flight and close intention should be made when gluin' t' wings t' t' fuselage, these are just like t' fins but bigger. Arrr! T' kit goes together fast and can be framed up in 3 or 4 hours easy. Arrr! T' finishin' is goin' t' interestin' and I’m thinkin' o' usin' Aerogloss dope t' seal everythin' thin' before painting. Ahoy! I think t' dope will be lighter than Sealer and better for all t' balsa wood. Well, blow me down! Paint is one color "White" that makes thin' simple and with the decals that are Waterslide, adds alot o' detail t' this kit. Well, blow me down! I like t' change colors and things on rockets t' make them me own, but t' do so with this one would be just wrong, it can't get any beter. William is buildin' and flyin' this for his Nartrek Gemini Level and was very excited t' build this, I hope we’ll fly it in 2 weeks at ROCC.

 

Well this project got set aside for a while once framed up, arrr, Just other things goin' on. Aye aye! Blimey! Finishin' this was a challenge on t' main because o' t' tight places t' sand and seal. If doin' again, I might seal everythin' before takin' it out o' t' sheets. Avast! Blimey! Put about 4 coats o' sealer on them sandin' betwixt coats, this way t' ends be t' only thin' t' seal and could be done easy after glued together.
