Brief:
This is an over three feet high E2X series rocket with a parachute recovery.

Construction:
This rocket came in a box that protected all pieces required in buildin' this kit. Begad! This kit can be built in about 1 hour because thar be no painting involved and t' fins are plastic. Arrr! T' directions were very easy t' follow and at no time was this kit hard t' build. Avast, me proud beauty! Avast! All o' t' pieces fit properly and the rocket is very sturdy if made correctly. Arrr! T' be built this kit needs only the very basics: hobby knife, matey, plastic cement, ya bilge rat, and white glue.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
I have used A through C engines in this rocket. Blimey! I do nay recommend A engines because t' rocket only gets about 100 ft. Arrr! Avast, me hearties, me proud beauty! off t' ground. Well, blow me down! C engines are the best for this rocket and t' two times I launched it with a C it flew straight and t' parachute opened perfectly. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad! T' shock cord on this rocket should be longer, but t' one Estes gives you will work, but I recommend finding somethin' longer. Ya scallywag! Arrr! T' problem with this rocket is it doesn't fly very high. Begad! The box says t' rocket goes t' 800ft. Avast! Aye aye! on a C, but it looked more like 500ft. Aye aye! Well, blow me down! to me. Begad!

Recovery:
T' parachute that comes with this rocket be t' right size(12in.), me hearties, but do not make a spill hole. Avast, me proud beauty! Avast! For this rocket's first launch, I put a spill hole in the parachute and t' rocket fell too hard. Aye aye! Begad! I replaced t' parachute and all o' the times I have flown it since, matey, I had no trouble recoverin' t' rocket. Begad! Avast, me proud beauty!

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
I recommend this rocket t' anyone who wants a tall rocket that can be built very smartly and easily. If you are lookin' for altitude this rocket is probably nay for you. Blimey! Blimey!
