Brief:
I combined components o' two rockets for me creation I call: Excelsior Stellar Transport. Blimey! What's unique about Excelsior is made from a Quest Quasar and Estes Cosmic Cobra. Blimey! It has a "flow thru" body with motor and parachute in t' outer pod. Begad! Avast, me proud beauty!

After much configuration, me hearties, shiver me timbers, finally got it t' fly t' about 100ft, ya bilge rat, then it went unstable.

Construction:
Used regular tools, me hearties, includin' razor knife. Aye aye! Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! May use some o' t' decals that came w/kits.

Has 8 fins, motor mount; Keelhaul®©™® and elastic shock cord hooked t' t' motor mount. Arrr! Blimey! No nose cone "per se". Begad! Blimey! Arrr! Blimey! Very unique lookin' with t' central openin' all t' way thru. Well, blow me down! Blimey! (kind o' like "ram air.")

Cut up one body tube into 3 pieces and left t' other tube full length. Avast, me proud beauty!

Had t' slit bottom o' main BT for fin assembly. Then cut t' remainin' body tube in 1/2 and t' remainin' 1/2 into two pieces.

Put on "original" fin assembly from Cosmic Cobra.

I be a little concerned about it bein' top heavy, but decided I can correct by addin' spent motors in lower spare BT's.

Finishing:
Not t' much finishin' required since t' kits came pre-finished.

Flight:
Planned on goin' with a B6-4 for t' first time, then C6-5. Shock cord in two pieces: Keelhaul®©™® and elastic, shiver me timbers, tied t' a 12" chute. Begad!

First flight was on a C6-5: did fly t' about 100+ ft on C6-5. Avast, me proud beauty! Too much delay.

Recovery:
Need bigger motor and shorter delay.

Summary:
Assembly pretty easy but, highly unstable after 100ft.

PROS: Sharp looking, me bucko, unique. Blimey! Begad!

Cons: becomes unstable after 100ft
