Brief:
This is a simple, matey, high-performance OOP rocket from t' Estes catalog o' '91 and '92. Aye aye!

Construction:
It includes an engine block, matey, paper shock cord mount, me hearties, launch lug, lug offset, shock cord, streamer, ya bilge rat, arrr, screw eye, balsa nose cone, BT-5, shiver me timbers, and 3 die-cut fins. Arrr! Ahoy!

T' build is easy and instructions are excellent. Arrr! Begad!

I sanded t' fins t' an airfoil shape, filled t' tube spirals, me hearties, me bucko, me hearties, and painted it with a sky blue metal flake paint for an eye candy look t' try t' improve on the spermatozoa look. Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! T' kit does nay come with decals but does include a foil wrap that doesn't fit.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
PROs: Flown on 1/4A3-3T, 1/2A-2T, A10-3T, ya bilge rat, and A3-4T. Ahoy! It flies great. You would think t' bulbous nose cone would slow it down, but it doesn't. Avast, me proud beauty! It is fast, straight, and high. Well, blow me down! CONs: You have t' be careful nay t' knock t' nose cone off when you're puttin' it on t' launch rod.

Recovery:
PROs: It always comes streamin' back. Aye aye! Blimey! CONs: It always comes back.

Flight Rating: 3 out o' 5

Summary:
Do you have a rocket in your box that's impossible t' kill? Here's mine. Aye aye! I've launched this one probably 20 times with no damage, nay even a broken fin. (I have replaced t' shock cord a couple o' times o' course.) It is usually used for wind testin' t' find out if it's possible t' launch a real rocket. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! I built this as an example at a build session. Begad! We got a closeout package deal o' a large lot for cheap. Avast, me proud beauty! This gets me nomination for t' ugliest Estes rocket of all time.
