Brief:
Khufu's Pyramid is a nice low flying, high drag rocket. Arrr! It is 6" tall and 5.25" wide.

Construction:
T' kit comes with cardstock for t' template and skin o' t' pyramid. Ahoy! Blimey! It also has 8 triangle pieces that make up t' 4 sides. Well, ya bilge rat, blow me down! A 24mm mount is included along with a streamer for recovery o' t' motor mount. T' parachute is a nice and thick.

T' instructions are lengthy and very good. Aye aye! This is listed as a skill level 4 kit and I believe it. Well, blow me down! Avast! A couple o' t' steps were a little confusin' t' me, but I emailed Sunward and they replied within 1 day.

One o' t' steps in question was t' use o' t' paper template. Aye aye! Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! I wanted to make sure that it be t' skin o' t' pyramid. T' other question was about how much nose weight t' use. Arrr! Blimey! T' instructions tell you t' add extra nose weight for E motors, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, but it does nay tell you how much. I added as much nose weight as I could fit under t' forward closure.

T' instructions specify white glue for workin' t' paper template. Arrr! Ahoy! I think that is critical t' gettin' a smooth finish. Well, blow me down! Be sure t' brush on t' white glue lightly so t' paper does nay wrinkle.

Finishing:
T' pyramid is very easy t' finish. Begad! Blimey! You just paint t' paper template. Avast, arrr, me proud beauty! Blimey! I did not use any primer and t' finish is a nice bright yellow.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
Preppin' for t' flight can be a little tricky. Ahoy! You have t' roll up the parachute tightly and fit in t' motor mount. T' streamer for t' motor mount is also tucked next t' t' motor tube. Aye aye! Be sure nay t' wrap t' parachute or the streamer around t' motor tube as they may nay open up if you do that.

T' flight be straight and true. Begad! T' pyramid boosted well on t' D12-3. Aye aye! It had a little spin after burn out and looked cool doin' it. Ahoy! It should really fly well on an F12 or E11.

Recovery:
T' recovery was nice and easy. Well, blow me down! Well, arrr, blow me down! T' pyramid uses aft ejection. T' motor mount and parachute are ejected out t' rear. Well, blow me down! T' motor mount comes down on a streamer and t' pyramid on a parachute.

I be a little worried that t' point o' t' pyramid would get damaged on landing, me hearties, but t' pyramid came down in soft soil and thar was nay even a scratch. Blimey! Ya scallywag!

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
This is a nice kit and is different from your normal 3FNC. Aye aye! Blimey! It can be a little challenge t' build but take your time. It is a nice addition t' any rocket fleet.
