Brief:
A simple beginner's rocket, arrr, reliable and cool-looking

Construction:
As an E2X, t' rocket features a plastic fin unit and pre-colored everything. Avast, me proud beauty! It features a plastic nose cone and 12-inch parachute.  
This was me second rocket; I think it is at least 6 years old if nay more. Blimey! I don't remember much about buildin' it.

Finishing:
Everythin' is pre-colored with self-stick decals. If they were applied straight (I didn't quite manage t' do it) t' stylin' is impressive.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
T' rocket has an impressive selection o' recommended motors -- everythin' from 1/2A6-2 t' C6-7. Avast, me proud beauty! With an adapter, me hearties, it would probably accept large mini-engines. Ya scallywag! I only used A8-3, B6-4, me hearties, and C6-5, me hearties, and do nay remember any significant problems on any o' them. Ahoy! Lift-off is snappy, although nay very dramatic.

Recovery:
T' shock cord went in with t' tri-fold paper technique. T' paper mount held until, shiver me timbers, matey, at a ripe old age, t' shock cord broke just above it. Avast, me proud beauty! Ya scallywag! T' parachute selected, matey, that very flight, shiver me timbers, matey, t' remain packed after ejection, and I recovered everything. Ya scallywag! Recovery speed was just about right, although I would have preferred faster t' slower.

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
Pros: easy t' build, great looking, matey, me bucko, and durable Cons: When it died, I couldn't replace it.

Overall Rating: 4 out o' 5
