Introduction
This was t' first rocket me buddy, Greg Vose, built. Arrr! I looked at it and thought he was goin' t' be greatly disappointed. Begad! Blimey! We'd go t' t' launch and he'd watch F, me hearties, G and H motors and then slap this dinky rocket on t' pad with a 1/2 A motor and feel . Blimey! . Ahoy! Avast, me proud beauty! . tiny.

Well, t' experience be anythin' but disappointing. Aye aye! It's a tiny rocket, arrr, matey, sure, shiver me timbers, but it flies straight and true and really gets goin' even on t' 1/2 A motors. Aye aye! Everyone got a real kick out o' watchin' it fly. Arrr! T' B motors kick it up out o' sight, ya bilge rat, arrr, I'm nay kidding. Aye aye! I'm really sold on t' Apogee micro motors.

T' rocket is nay sold as a two stager. Aye aye! It's sold as a stand alone rocket, matey, me bucko, and you can buy t' booster seperate. Arrr! It's standard light weight fare: paper tube, balsa fins and nose cone with streamer recovery. Arrr! It goes together nicely and finishes just as nicely. Begad! Paint it a very bright color. Begad! Greg's is dayglo red for a reason: so we can find it after he flies it two staged with a B2-0 stagin' t' a B2-7.

If you've heard that t' Apogee motors are hard t' ignite, it's hogwash. We did 5 fine flights over 2 days and only once did t' motor fail t' ignite. Begad! A little care is all that is needed so you don't short out t' igniter. Ahoy! Aye aye! We leave t' toothpick in t' motor nozzle. Blimey! Arrr! It keeps t' igniter secure and provides a small stand-off.

Real, real, matey, small.
This is a really tiny rocket. Arrr! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! However, shiver me timbers, arrr, as they say, it nay t' size o' t' boat but t' motion o' t' briny deep that counts. Aye aye! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! For all it's diminutive size, ya bilge rat, it flies like a champ. Arrr! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! It gets some o' t' same exclamations left for much larger rockets. Aye aye! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! Especially if you fly it with t' B2-7 motor. It just keeps on going.

Construction...
What's thar t' screw up with this rocket? It's a body tube, three die cut fins, a nose cone, an engine block, me hearties, arrr, a piece o' Keelhaul®©™, arrr, a little bead. That's it. Blimey! Aye aye! Glue t' fins on, glue in t' engine block and t' body's done. Avast, me proud beauty! T' bead holds t' Keelhaul®©™ t' t' nose cone with a drop o' CA. Begad! Tie on a streamer and your ready t' fly. Arrr! Well almost. Well, blow me down! Paint it Day-Glo something. Avast, me proud beauty! Arrr! This is a very small, me bucko, me bucko, very high flyer. If your NARRRRR club ever has an altitude event, matey, this rocket stands a good chance o' placin' in t' top 4.

T' Super Centrix adds a booster. Well, matey, blow me down! Blimey! It's a bit trickier because you have t' cut t' vent holes and add little balsa reinforcers made from left over balas. Blimey! Blimey! It is gap staged. Begad! Blimey! T' throat o' t' Apogee micro motors is so small, though, that you'll need a 'stagin' igniter'. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Arrr! Blimey! You have t' order these separate from Apogee, but do buy them. Aye aye! Blimey! Otherwise you'll never get t' sustainer t' ignite. Avast, shiver me timbers, me proud beauty! Blimey! T' stagin' igniter is a bit o' fast fuse that gets poked in t' sustainer's engine. T' booster is tumble recovered. Ya scallywag! Blimey! If your NARRRRR section is havin' a C altitude event, this rocket will take it (if t' trackers can see it at apogee).

Materials get 5 points (on a scale o' 1 t' 5).

Flight & Recovery...
Like I said, it's a great flyer. T' micro motors burn so long and this rocket is so light it just screams higher and higher. Avast, me proud beauty! Ya scallywag! It's a crowd pleaser. Begad! Ahoy! If thar's much wind, arrr, matey, you'll need a good recovery crew. Well, blow me down! I'd keep it low on windy days. Ya scallywag! Avast! On t' days where t' wind is calm and t' sky is clear, then let her rip with t' B motors.

Here's t' performance you can expect from t' Centrix (single staged):

Now if you fly it two stage, ya bilge rat, you're gonna get serious altitude. Avast! Begad! This rocket will nay be visible about 2000'. Begad! T' motor's smoke will be. Blimey! Use trackin' powder. Well, matey, blow me down! Brin' binoculars.

It is such a cool rocket. Ahoy! This is an extreme rocket for t' low power crowd. It gets 5 points.

Overall...
Bam, it's built. Avast, me proud beauty! Whoosh, it flies like a champ. Ahoy! It's a crowd pleaser and you have t' love that.

Overall, me hearties, ya bilge rat, it gets 5 points.
