Brief
This is a simple Skill Level 1 low-power build that was a fun evening. Well, blow me down! Avast, me proud beauty! T' kit couldn't be any simpler t' build and t' instructions were awesome. Avast! It will be a nice addition t' me Patriot Battery when t' weather breaks for painting.
Components
Nothin' surprisin' here, ya bilge rat, a simple nine-inch body tube, plastic two-piece nosecone, me bucko, arrr, shiver me timbers, a motor block, launch lug, and rubber shock cord with streamer.
Construction
There were no cons t' speak of. Well, blow me down! T' instructions could nay have been simpler. Begad! If thar was anythin' t' mention maybe t' lack o' a fin guide, but on a rocket this size its nay needed (unless bein' built as a first kit maybe).
Finishing
No decals. Arrr! Blimey! Typical Patriot pain job. Begad! Blimey! Small vinyl letters from a craft store could do t' ARMY real easy if you wanted. Arrr! Blimey! Have nay started on paintin' due t' t' weather, but t' tube is very smooth. I doubt it will need more than a coat o' primer t' fill t' spirals.
