Brief:
T' Stovi is a unique 6-fin HP rocket with parachute recovery.

Construction:
T' Stovi comes with seven (7) 24mm tubes and one (1) 29mm tube. Begad! Aye aye! Blimey! It can be construted with either a 24mm or 29mm motor mount. Ya scallywag! Blimey! All o' t' components were high quality that is typical with LOC products. Aye aye! Blimey! It comes with a 3.1" Diameter airframe and a reducer t' 2.26".

T' kit be easy t' assemble with t' instructions provided. Begad! Blimey! I'll admit that I had t' think about t' method o' assembly t' incorporate t' 29mm central motor tube. It is necessary t' remove a 'sliver' from each o' t' outboard 24mm tubes so that they all fit into t' 3.1" diameter airframe. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! This means that you cannot cluster anythin' in t' outboard tubes. Aye aye! Blimey! Arrr! Blimey! It is absolutely unnecessary t' utilize t' outboard tubes with t' H-128 loaded anyway. Ahoy! Blimey! (believe me). Avast! Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! T' fins are 'wedged in t' valley made by t' two adjacent motor tubes. Begad! Blimey! Begad! Blimey! I did fold some sandpaper and slide it betwixt t' tubes so that I could sand t' correct bevel on each side o' t' fins.

Motor retention.... Well, blow me down! Arrr! How t' do it? I cut 2 circular pieces t' insert into t' ends o' two o' t' outboard 24mm tubes. Ahoy! I sanded t' section out where t' interference o' t' 29mm tubes exists. Aye aye! Well, blow me down! I couple o' blind t-nuts and some epoxy later, I had positive motor retention.

Finishing:
There were no decals with t' rocket kit. Arrr! Arrr! That is just fine by me, arrr, I like creatin' somethin' unique anyway. Ya scallywag! Well, blow me down! T' color scheme that I came up with be a combination effort betwixt me son, matey, Alex, arrr, shiver me timbers, and me. Ya scallywag! I painted t' outboard tubes alternately bule and yellow. Avast! T' rest o' t' airframe is also blue and yellow with thin yellow or blue monokote strips applied. Blimey! Begad! I cut t' letterin' out o' monokote t' put t' finishin' touch on it.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
I don't really remember what t' recommended motors are or if they still exist. It doesn't mater anyway because it's tough enough t' handle an H. Ahoy! I have one launch picture that must have been an F because it was really underpowered. At least I got t' rocket IN that picture!

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

This a great rocket. Begad! It looks and flies great.

Overall Rating: 4 out o' 5
