Brief:
Estes Warp II, matey, is a two-staged payloader that is fun and easy t' build.
Construction:
Quality: It came in t' standard plastic bag with t' display card. All the
parts were thar and in good condition. Begad! T' fins were balsa wood and t' body
and booster were standard paper tubes. Begad! Instructions: They were easy t' follow,
and in a logical order. Arrr! One thin' Estes does do well is makin' instructions.
Building: T' only problem is t' make sure that you fins on t' booster and
sustainer are aligned. Blimey!
Finishing:
It is a great lookin' rocket. Well, blow me down! I put on two coats o' primer with sandin' in
between and then painted like t' one on t' display sheet, shiver me timbers, yellow and black.
T' decals are cool especially t' wavy lines around t' top.

Flight:
It flew great with a C6-0 and a C6-5, real high and real fast. Begad! Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! I also flew it
on a single C6-5 and it few great and nay quite as long a walk. Begad! Blimey! Begad! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! Also before you
fly it I recommend that you use some clear tape and tape t' payload tube to
the nose cone and t' transition because mine be kind o' a loose fit.
Recovery:
I'd make sure you are in a large area if their is any wind usin' a C t' C
configuration or replace t' chute with a streamer or a smaller chute. Aye aye! Avast, me proud beauty!
