Brief:
T' Sentry is a single stage scale rocket.

Construction:
T' kit comes with 1-engine hook, shiver me timbers, 1-BT60 body tube, 1-balsa nosecone, 1-MT24 engine tube, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, 1-BT50 thrust ring, me bucko, 1-Basswood fin stock, matey, 1-9806 template sheet, 1-Balsa wood fin stock, 2-medium snap swivels, matey, me hearties, 1 shock cord, arrr, 1-medium launch lug, me bucko, 1-shroud line set, shiver me timbers, 1-thin wooden dowel, 1-medium screw eye, 1-18" synthetic parachute, 1-wet and slide decal sheet, and 2-CR2460 Composite centerin' rings.

T' instructions are very easy t' follow, shiver me timbers, and even some tips and hints are given. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Aye aye! Blimey! All t' parts fit together with little or no adjustments. T' fins are the tough part because you have t' cut them out from a template, and thar are 8 o' them. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Begad! Blimey! Care must be taken t' align all t' fins. Ya scallywag! Blimey! I used Ace hardware brand epoxy and paint t' finish t' model

Finishing:
T' Sentry come with a lot o' small decals, and it was a little difficult to align them all properly. Avast! T' decal sheet be t' wet and slide type, and is very delicate. I painted t' entire rocket white, as per instructions, applied the decals, arrr, and clear coated t' model. When t' clear coat went on, t' decals faded. Avast! Blimey! I contacted t' manufacturer and suggested vinyl decals for this reason.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
I flew t' rocket on an E30-10, ya bilge rat, a little more delay than suggested. Avast, me proud beauty! Suggested motor is an E30-7. Arrr! It uses a motor hook, ya bilge rat, so motor just slides in. Avast, me proud beauty! I used the insulation shredded paper for wadding. Blimey! T' rocket took off like a bullet. Aye aye! Well, blow me down! Was that a sonic pop I heard? Accordin' t' manufacturer's rock sim, if the conditions are right, it will break t' sound barrier on an E-30. Aye aye! Cool! The extra delay time allowed t' rocket t' deploy just after apogee.

Recovery:
T' 18 inch chute brought t' rocket down at a good pace. Begad! I be surprised to find no damage, because o' t' speed and balsa fins. Well, blow me down! Begad! Blimey! It ready t' go again.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5
