Brief:
This is a clone o' t' OOP Estes kit. Avast! While it is a fairly standard model, it has some very nice qualities t' it includin' its size and its transition.

Construction:
My primary components were:

• 18" BT-60 body tube
• 18" BT-55 body tube
• PNC-55
• BT-60 t' BT-55 transition
• 4 Hand-traced and cut balsa fins
• 2.75" 24mm engine tube
• BT-60 t' BT-50 cardboard centerin' rings, scratch-made
• Elastic shock cord
• Hartle Engineerin' 12" parachute

This was a relatively simple and straightforward build. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Aye aye! Blimey! All o' t' construction was done with Elmer's wood glue. Aye aye! Blimey! Well, blow me down! Blimey!

Finishing:
After construction, I primed t' rocket with Wal-Mart primer (all t' paint used on this one be from Wal-Mart), sandin' and primin' several times. Blimey! I painted t' entire rocket white, masked and painted t' fin section orange, matey, then masked again t' pain t' top portion silver. Blimey! I really like t' paint scheme and look forward t' addin' t' decals that will be created with Avery labels.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
I have flown this rocket once on a D12-5. Begad! Begad! T' flight be great! – nice and straight.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
This was an enjoyable build for me! – nay too challengin' and yet fun. Aye aye! While some may view it as nay much more than a 4FNC, I think it's a great rocket and look forward t' flyin' it often.

Overall Rating: 4 out o' 5
