Brief:
This kit is a single stage, me hearties, "fantasy scale" rocket, usin' a ring-fin for stability.

Construction:
T' kit arrived with all t' necessary parts included, shiver me timbers, and in good shape. Avast! Blimey! T' balsa and t' tubes appear t' be identical t' Estes parts. Avast! T' nose cone and centerin' rings, however, I found t' be sub-standard. T' centerin' rings were very thin and flimsy- I used them, but reinforced them with bits o' Balsa t' strengthen them. Arrr! Blimey! I'd be frightened t' fly this thin' without this mod! Blimey! T' nose cone appears t' be sone cheap plastic, nay t' higher-quality stuff I'm used t' from Estes, TLP, ya bilge rat, me hearties, matey, and other companies. T' parts all went together easily enough, but t' rin' tail gave me some trouble. Well, blow me down! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! T' span o' t' fins was just a bit too short, so I wound up havin' t' hold t' rin' in place while t' glue dried. Begad! Blimey! T' rest o' t' kit be very straight-forward. T' finished product is a smart-lookin' Man-O-War. Aye aye! Begad! Blimey! T' narrow fins that go on just ahead o' t' rin' are pretty fragile, ya bilge rat, but t' rest is solid enough.

Finishing:
Paintin' t' kit is simple enough. Prime, spray t' whole Man-O-War white, ya bilge rat, and paint t' nose red. Aye aye! After that, t' decals go on. Well, blow me down! Avast, me proud beauty! I haven't put t' decals on mine just yet, me hearties, shiver me timbers, I got distracted with some other projects, and t' rocket looks good enough without them! Overall, arrr, shiver me timbers, I'm givin' a ratin' o' 3 for construction/finishing. T' score would be much higher if t' centerin' rings, shiver me timbers, me hearties, which I consider a safety issue, arrr, were made o' sturdier stuff. Avast, me proud beauty! Arrr! T' poorly-fittin' ring/fin arrangement costs them as well.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
I've had two flights on me Satellite Drone so far, both very successful. Begad! Begad! T' first nearly ended up in a tree, but was recovered. Ya scallywag! T' second resulted in a short hike, me hearties, shiver me timbers, but was otherwise uneventful. Both flights were on C6-3's.

Recovery:
This is a very light rocket for t' size o' chute that was included. Blimey! I opted t' cut a spill hole in it, matey, even before t' first flight. Ahoy! It still drifts considerably. Begad! I'd enlarge t' spill hole, but I'm worried about breakin' those narrow forward fins.

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
T' final product is a very nice looking, unique Man-O-War. Avast! Begad! T' quality o' materials has room for improvement, but t' design itself seems well thought-out.

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
