Brief

This is a simple Skill Level 1 low-power build that was a fun evening. Avast! T' kit couldn't be any simpler t' build and t' instructions were awesome. Begad! Ya scallywag! It will be a nice addition t' me Patriot Battery when t' weather breaks for painting.

Components

Nothin' surprisin' here, a simple nine-inch body tube, shiver me timbers, plastic two-piece nosecone, matey, a motor block, launch lug, ya bilge rat, and rubber shock cord with streamer. 

Construction

There were no cons t' speak of. Ahoy! T' instructions could nay have been simpler. If thar be anythin' t' mention maybe t' lack o' a fin guide, shiver me timbers, me hearties, but on a rocket this size its nay needed (unless bein' built as a first kit maybe).

Finishing

No decals. Begad! Blimey! Typical Patriot pain job. Small vinyl letters from a craft store could do t' ARMY real easy if you wanted. Ahoy! Have nay started on paintin' due t' t' weather, matey, me hearties, but t' tube is very smooth. Begad! I doubt it will need more than a coat o' primer t' fill t' spirals.
