Brief:
This is a 13mm version o' Art's larger 24mm Qubit. Arrr! Begad! This be t' first all cardstock kit I've built that is intended for 13mm motors. Aye aye! Avast! It is a free download and is contained entirely on one sheet o' colored cardstock, me hearties, shiver me timbers, includin' t' instructions. I built a beta version that was pre-printed and one that I printed myself. Aye aye! T' latter is called 'Dicey' as it resembles a die.

I know this may be somewhat repetitious, ya bilge rat, since thar are already two nice reviews on this mini-Qubit, shiver me timbers, but mine was mostly written before those were posted. Avast, me proud beauty! So here goes...

Construction:

• Cut out t' body, matey, which consists o' a single cutout for both t' outer shell and bottom sections
• Cut t' launch rod and motor mount holes
• Form and install t' motor tube

T' instructions tell you how large t' side o' one o' t' cube faces should be and I recommend you verify this measurement. Begad! On t' version I printed, matey, t' cutout be a tad larger than it was supposed t' be. Ya scallywag! Avast! T' only issue this caused was that t' motor mount hole, shiver me timbers, was also a bit too big. I compensated by makin' t' cutout o' t' motor tube a bit longer. Avast! Aye aye! Once it was wrapped, arrr, me hearties, arrr, t' OD was also larger and fit nicely into t' motor hole.

Finishing:
Finishin' t' plain version is up t' t' individual but I was happy with t' day-glo orange mine be printed on. Begad! Blimey! Avast! Blimey! T' Dicey came pre-marked.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
T' only recommended motor be t' A10-PT. Ahoy! All you have t' do is friction fit t' motor and offset t' rocket 6" or more from t' blast deflector.

T' A10 gives this rocket a nice jump off t' pad. Begad! Both me Orange Qubit and Dicey flew straight despite t' 15+ mph winds. T' Orange one suffered some damage prior t' launch when t' LPR rack blew over. Begad! However, arrr, shiver me timbers, me bucko, with a little maskin' tape, shiver me timbers, it be good t' go.

Recovery:
Aerobrake..'nuff said. Well, blow me down! T' Orange one landed one car away from me SUV and Dicey actually hit me range box and came t' rest just under me SUV. Avast, me proud beauty! I guess t' wind was fairly uniform from flight t' flight.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
Fun, easy, me bucko, and FREE! This little guy really rips on an A10! T' only issue is that t' cardstock will warp easily and may deform under A10 power, arrr, but remember t' cost!

Overall Rating: 4 out o' 5
