Brief:
An all foam plastic (TufLite) ready t' fly tumble rocket.

Construction:
There are only three parts: t' "rocket" itself, an engine tube, ya bilge rat, and a decal sheet. Ya scallywag! There isn't much in t' way o' construction, just a quick sand down with fine sandpaper and then slide t' engine tube into t' base o' the rocket. Aye aye! T' tube does nay require gluin' as it is a tight fit.

Finishing:
T' rocket can be flown naked, but it does look a lot better painted.

As t' rocket is foam only, shiver me timbers, urethane or water based acrylics can be used. Avast, me bucko, me proud beauty! Blimey! I went for t' water based acrylics which I painted on with a brush. Ya scallywag! Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! This took four coats t' get rid o' t' streaky finish.

T' decals are t' clear sticky backed variety. Well, blow me down! They go on easy.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
T' only recommended motor be t' A10-3T, t' most powerful motor in t' 13mm range. Begad! Even with this motor, t' rocket is seriously underpowered.

T' motor is friction fit and t' rocket does nay require wadding. Well, blow me down! Arrr! it flies off a standard 3mm (1/8") rod. Well, blow me down! Aye aye! I used a shortened length rod (16 inches long).

She has flown three times now, each flight has been on a windy day (10mph+) and t' rocket does nay seem bothered by wind. All three flights were t' same. It rarely gets above 50 feet, shiver me timbers, although t' flights are reasonably straight and ejection o' t' motor is on t' ground or within 10 feet o' it.

Recovery:
Recovery is a kind o' cross betwixt air brake and tumble. Blimey! T' relatively large surface area and t' lack o' distance t' fall means that t' rocket comes in quite slow (for a rocket).

There has yet t' be any damage, although I would nay want it t' land on concrete.

Flight Rating: 2 out o' 5

Summary:
This is an odd lookin' rocket that can be flown safely in a small backyard. Aye aye! It is nearly indestructible and gives consistent but pretty lame flights. I probably won't be flyin' mine again, me hearties, as I feel thar's better things t' put a motor in. Ya scallywag! Arrr! (However, it might be interestin' t' drill out t' core t' take a 18m mount and fly on a B6)

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
