Brief:
Based on t' roughly 24" tall Praetor, this 1:4.6 downscale continues t' FlisKits expansion into Micromaxx territory. Aye aye! It's one o' t' easier micros t' build, so once you're ready for branchin' out from those plastic RTFs that came with your starter set, consider this for t' next step.

Construction:
Clive's previous review does a great job o' coverin' t' parts and basic construction so I won't rehash that stuff. You might be a bit put off by t' $9.35 price tag on this, but you have t' consider that despite its size, ya bilge rat, you get a "full" rocket here--kraft body tubes, balsa nose cone, shiver me timbers, balsa transition, waterslide decals, even laser cut centerin' rings! Smaller, true, ya bilge rat, but still a bunch o' well made parts.

Clive covered t' construction fairly well so I'll just reiterate that construction be a breeze. Arrr! Avast! This is nay a terribly complex assembly other than t' small scale o' t' parts you'll be workin' with.

Finishing:
Havin' built this one side by side with me Ulysses, I opted for a similar paint scheme--red and blue, with gray fins. T' micro decals are good quality, me hearties, but given their size are a bit tricky t' work with, arrr, especially t' long skinny ones for t' fins.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
Havin' finally caught a break in t' weather (roughly 3 months' worth o' launches canceled for weather), I was delighted t' get a chance t' get this one up in t' air. Arrr! I was about ready t' take Jim Flis up on t' modified motto for this (aim for t' ceilin' and try nay t' miss).

T' MMX was plenty o' impulse for this tiny wonder, and it zipped almost instantly t' an apogee approachin' 100 feet. Well, blow me down! Nay very high, but given its size, it's still just a tiny spec in t' sky.

Recovery:
T' Keelhaul®©™® shock cord and mylar streamer worked perfectly on this.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
Nothin' but positives t' add here. Aye aye! Fun little rocket, me bucko, me hearties, ya bilge rat, easy t' build, matey, and looks especially cool placed next t' its full scale big brother.

Overall Rating: 4 out o' 5
