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

T' Sentry come with a lot o' small decals, and it was a little difficult to align them all properly. Avast, me proud beauty! Aye aye! T' decal sheet be t' wet and slide type, me hearties, me hearties, and is very delicate. Aye aye! I painted t' entire rocket white, arrr, as per instructions, arrr, applied the decals, matey, and clear coated t' model. Begad! Avast, me proud beauty! When t' clear coat went on, t' decals faded. Avast, me proud beauty! 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, a little more delay than suggested. Suggested motor is an E30-7. Avast! It uses a motor hook, so motor just slides in. Well, blow me down! I used the insulation shredded paper for wadding. Aye aye! Ya scallywag! T' rocket took off like a bullet. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Was that a sonic pop I heard? Accordin' t' manufacturer's rock sim, shiver me timbers, if the conditions are right, it will break t' sound barrier on an E-30. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad! 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. I be surprised to find no damage, me hearties, because o' t' speed and balsa fins. It ready t' go again. Ya scallywag!
