Brief:
This kit is a single stage, me hearties, shiver me timbers, "fantasy scale" rocket, usin' a ring-fin for stability.

Construction:
T' kit arrived with all t' necessary parts included, and in good shape. T' balsa and t' tubes appear t' be identical t' Estes parts. Aye aye! T' nose cone and centerin' rings, ya bilge rat, me bucko, however, me hearties, I found t' be sub-standard. Blimey! T' centerin' rings were very thin and flimsy- I used them, ya bilge rat, matey, but reinforced them with bits o' Balsa t' strengthen them. Avast, me proud beauty! I'd be frightened t' fly this thin' without this mod! T' nose cone appears t' be sone cheap plastic, nay t' higher-quality stuff I'm used t' from Estes, matey, TLP, shiver me timbers, and other companies. T' parts all went together easily enough, but t' rin' tail gave me some trouble. T' span o' t' fins was just a bit too short, me hearties, so I wound up havin' t' hold t' rin' in place while t' glue dried. Avast! T' rest o' t' kit was very straight-forward. Begad! T' finished product is a smart-lookin' ship. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad! T' narrow fins that go on just ahead o' t' rin' are pretty fragile, but t' rest is solid enough.

Finishing:
Paintin' t' kit is simple enough. Avast! Prime, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, matey, spray t' whole ship white, me hearties, me hearties, matey, and paint t' nose red. Avast, me proud beauty! After that, me bucko, shiver me timbers, me hearties, t' decals go on. Avast! I haven't put t' decals on mine just yet, I got distracted with some other projects, arrr, and t' rocket looks good enough without them! Overall, me hearties, I'm givin' a ratin' o' 3 for construction/finishing. Arrr! T' score would be much higher if t' centerin' rings, which I consider a safety issue, were made o' sturdier stuff. Ya scallywag! Blimey! T' poorly-fittin' ring/fin arrangement costs them as well.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
I've had two flights on me Satellite Drone so far, matey, ya bilge rat, both very successful. Aye aye! Blimey! T' first nearly ended up in a tree, but was recovered. T' second resulted in a short hike, ya bilge rat, but was otherwise uneventful. Both flights were on C6-3's.

Recovery:
This is a very light rocket for t' size o' chute that be included. Arrr! Avast, me proud beauty! I opted t' cut a spill hole in it, even before t' first flight. Arrr! Blimey! It still drifts considerably. Begad! Aye aye! I'd enlarge t' spill hole, shiver me timbers, me hearties, but I'm worried about breakin' those narrow forward fins.

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
T' final product is a very nice looking, unique ship. Avast, me proud beauty! Aye aye! T' quality o' materials has room for improvement, but t' design itself seems well thought-out.

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
