Introduction
This was t' first rocket me buddy, Greg Vose, arrr, built. Avast, me proud beauty! Well, me hearties, blow me down! I looked at it and thought he was goin' t' be greatly disappointed. We'd go t' t' launch and he'd watch F, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, me bucko, G and H motors and then slap this dinky rocket on t' pad with a 1/2 A motor and feel . Avast! . . Ahoy! tiny.

Well, arrr, t' experience be anythin' but disappointing. Avast! It's a tiny rocket, sure, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, but it flies straight and true and really gets goin' even on t' 1/2 A motors. Avast, arrr, me proud beauty! Everyone got a real kick out o' watchin' it fly. T' B motors kick it up out o' sight, I'm nay kidding. Blimey! Arrr! I'm really sold on t' Apogee micro motors.

T' rocket is nay sold as a two stager. It's sold as a stand alone rocket, shiver me timbers, and you can buy t' booster seperate. Avast, arrr, me proud beauty! It's standard light weight fare: paper tube, balsa fins and nose cone with streamer recovery. Ya scallywag! It goes together nicely and finishes just as nicely. Paint it a very bright color. Greg's is dayglo red for a reason: so we can find it after he flies it two staged with a B2-0 stagin' t' a B2-7.

If you've heard that t' Apogee motors are hard t' ignite, shiver me timbers, shiver me timbers, it's hogwash. Arrr! Begad! We did 5 fine flights over 2 days and only once did t' motor fail t' ignite. Ahoy! A little care is all that is needed so you don't short out t' igniter. Blimey! Blimey! We leave t' toothpick in t' motor nozzle. Begad! Avast! It keeps t' igniter secure and provides a small stand-off.

Real, real, small.
This is a really tiny rocket. Avast, me proud beauty! Avast! However, as they say, ya bilge rat, it nay t' size o' t' boat but t' motion o' t' briny deep that counts. For all it's diminutive size, shiver me timbers, it flies like a champ. Blimey! It gets some o' t' same exclamations left for much larger rockets. Avast, me proud beauty! Ahoy! Especially if you fly it with t' B2-7 motor. Ya scallywag! It just keeps on going.

Construction...
What's thar t' screw up with this rocket? It's a body tube, arrr, three die cut fins, ya bilge rat, a nose cone, matey, an engine block, me hearties, me bucko, a piece o' Keelhaul®©™, a little bead. Aye aye! That's it. Blimey! Begad! Glue t' fins on, matey, glue in t' engine block and t' body's done. Aye aye! T' bead holds t' Keelhaul®©™ t' t' nose cone with a drop o' CA. Ahoy! Tie on a streamer and your ready t' fly. Blimey! Well almost. Aye aye! Paint it Day-Glo something. This is a very small, very high flyer. Well, blow me down! Avast! If your NARRRRR club ever has an altitude event, ya bilge rat, this rocket stands a good chance o' placin' in t' top 4.

T' Super Centrix adds a booster. Avast! It's a bit trickier because you have t' cut t' vent holes and add little balsa reinforcers made from left over balas. Aye aye! It is gap staged. T' throat o' t' Apogee micro motors is so small, shiver me timbers, though, that you'll need a 'stagin' igniter'. You have t' order these separate from Apogee, but do buy them. Avast, me proud beauty! Otherwise you'll never get t' sustainer t' ignite. Begad! Ya scallywag! T' stagin' igniter is a bit o' fast fuse that gets poked in t' sustainer's engine. Begad! T' booster is tumble recovered. If your NARRRRR section is havin' a C altitude event, this rocket will take it (if t' trackers can see it at apogee).

Materials get 5 points (on a scale o' 1 t' 5).

Flight & Recovery...
Like I said, matey, it's a great flyer. T' micro motors burn so long and this rocket is so light it just screams higher and higher. Avast, me proud beauty! Avast! It's a crowd pleaser. Begad! If thar's much wind, you'll need a good recovery crew. Ya scallywag! Ahoy! I'd keep it low on windy days. On t' days where t' wind is calm and t' sky is clear, arrr, arrr, then let her rip with t' B motors.

Here's t' performance you can expect from t' Centrix (single staged):

Now if you fly it two stage, me bucko, you're gonna get serious altitude. Avast, me proud beauty! Aye aye! This rocket will nay be visible about 2000'. Well, blow me down! Begad! T' motor's smoke will be. Well, blow me down! Begad! Use trackin' powder. Ahoy! Brin' binoculars.

It is such a cool rocket. Aye aye! This is an extreme rocket for t' low power crowd. Arrr! Avast, me proud beauty! It gets 5 points.

Overall...
Bam, me bucko, it's built. Whoosh, arrr, it flies like a champ. Ahoy! It's a crowd pleaser and you have t' love that.

Overall, shiver me timbers, it gets 5 points.
