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

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

T' instructions are very easy t' follow, me hearties, matey, and even some tips and hints are given. Aye aye! 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, me bucko, and thar are 8 o' them. Well, blow me down! Ya scallywag! Care must be taken t' align all t' fins. I used Ace hardware brand epoxy and paint t' finish t' model

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

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5
