Brief:
I shortened t' span o' t' fins t' 2.25". Ya scallywag! Used 1/4" graphite tubing for launch lugs. Begad!

Modifications:
I took t' three (3) fins and put them in me flat jaw vice, me hearties, makin' sure t' keep them all straight and lined up. Avast, me proud beauty! Then with me dremel tool and a carbon cutting wheel, arrr, shiver me timbers, I cut all 3 fins at once. Aye aye! Then kept them in t' vice and sanded them flat with a sandin' block and some 120 grit. Ahoy! Blimey! I use t' dremel extension for cuttin' all me fins and I'll tell you why. Avast, me proud beauty! 1.) T' dremel tool itself will get in t' way o' t' fins when you lay t' tool flat on it's side t' cut. 2.) You have way better control, and can get right above your work t' see t' line you are cuttin' on. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad! Blimey! If you use a dremel t' cut your fins, ya bilge rat, I recommend buyin' an extension for it. Begad! Blimey! You can also get deep inside airframes with it.

Why reduce t' span o' t' fins? I generally scratch build everythin' and no kit goes by me without alteration. Begad! My general rule is make t' span o' each fin t' same as t' DIA of t' rocket. Arrr! Well, blow me down! 2.1" airframe..... Aye aye! Ahoy! 2" span on t' fins. My rockets are usually stable-marginally stable. Begad! I like t' wind t' push me rocket instead of them flyin' into t' wind. T' Phobos is a little over stable with the fins stock. Begad! Ahoy! I just couldn't resist addin' me personal touch.

Construction:
Kits contains: two (2) body tubes and a payload section. Quantum Tubing airframe. Ya scallywag! Three (3) fins, ya bilge rat, 1/16" G-10. Two (2) 1/8" centerin' rings to a 38mm phenolic MMT. Well, blow me down! 20' 3/8" Keelhaul®©™® shock cord. Well, blow me down! Attached nose cone with 3 small #10 machine screws

Packagin' be great. Well, blow me down! Ahoy! Blimey! But t' parachute was missin' and PML is currently helpin' me fix t' problem. T' quantum tubin' is awesome, besides nay being able t' fiberglass it. Blimey! Instructions were easy t' follow even without usin' the illustrations. Begad! Well, blow me down! Blimey! Fins went on straight, shiver me timbers, and t' rocket had nice fitting components, and feels very sturdy. Ya scallywag! Ahoy! Blimey! Right now it is just primered black, but will have a custom paint job soon.

Construction Rating: 5 out o' 5

Flight:
H123-10 worked like a charm. I friction fitted it with some maskin' tape. The rocket flew very straight. Ahoy! T' 3/8" Keelhaul®©™® worked good, and t' recovery was flawless. I didn't use any wadding, shiver me timbers, just a Nomex® heat shield.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
I really don't have any CON's about this rocket or any PML rockets, shiver me timbers, besides the elastic shock cord. Avast! Ahoy! But I am partial t' Keelhaul®©™® and mil spec tubular nylon. PRO's....Ease o' building. Begad! Nice fittin' components. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad! Blimey! PML really sands those phenolic couplers nice for you, and that saves a lot o' work. Well, blow me down! Good design. Simple t' follow directions. A good rocket for someone lookin' for a level 1 and level 2 rocket in one kit.
