Brief:
a RTF foam model o' t' enterprise. Begad! OOP for a while now. Aye aye! I bought more for its looks than its ability t' fly.

Construction:
T' rocket is ready t' fly with t' exception o' t' parachute that needs t' be added. Ahoy! As it's a Quest parachute, shiver me timbers, me hearties, get rid o' it and replace with a better parachute. Use an Estes at least.

There are small clear fins at t' back. Arrr! These are tacked on with glue and t' fins will pop off on hard landings.

T' motor fits in into t' middle o' t' rocket, t' flames will damage t' stickers and eventually get t' the foam.

T' parachute is a tight fit. Ya scallywag! Avast, me proud beauty! An upgrade here t' a mylar chute or t' somethin' similar would help. Avast! On cold days those plastic chutes will set.

Finishing:
T' rocket itself is nay great in its appearance. Avast, me proud beauty! T' stickers are awful, and after a few flights thay are peeling off. Blimey! Some have already started t' lift in t' unopened package, but t' be fair, t' package is now 10 years old. However, as an interestin' lookin' rocket and t' a Star Trek fan, matey, she's great

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight and Recovery:
T' flights aren't that bad. Ahoy! She boosts relatively straight, although she will roll a bit. Ahoy! Well, blow me down! Durin' t' coast phase she looks quite graceful as she goes through t' air. Avast! Altitude is nay overly high.

When things have nay gone so well, matey, such as t' motor slippin' its hook and t' rocket nosin' in hard, arrr, t' rocket handles itself quite well. Begad! Blimey! She actually bounces, and thar was no damage. Ahoy! Blimey! Other people have had less success.

Flight Rating: 3 out o' 5

Summary:
This is nay a rocket t' get if you are lookin' for performance or for scale detail. Aye aye! But as a fun rocket that looks good on a pad and flies OK (every flight has you a little worried), this is alright. Ahoy! Begad! I have two: one flown and one in the packet.

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
