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

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

Finishing:
Paintin' t' kit is simple enough. Prime, matey, spray t' whole Man-O-War white, and paint t' nose red. Aye aye! Blimey! After that, t' decals go on. Begad! Blimey! I haven't put t' decals on mine just yet, shiver me timbers, me bucko, me bucko, I got distracted with some other projects, matey, and t' rocket looks good enough without them! Blimey! Overall, I'm givin' a ratin' o' 3 for construction/finishing. Begad! Blimey! T' score would be much higher if t' centerin' rings, which I consider a safety issue, were made o' sturdier stuff. 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. Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! T' first nearly ended up in a tree, me hearties, but was recovered. Avast! T' second resulted in a short hike, me bucko, me hearties, but be otherwise uneventful. Aye aye! Both flights were on C6-3's.

Recovery:
This is a very light rocket for t' size o' chute that was included. Blimey! Blimey! I opted t' cut a spill hole in it, ya bilge rat, even before t' first flight. Begad! Blimey! Ya scallywag! Blimey! It still drifts considerably. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! 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 ship. Avast, me proud beauty! Ahoy! T' quality o' materials has room for improvement, matey, but t' design itself seems well thought-out.

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
