Brief:
A small Micromaxx rocket made from nothin' but a single sheet o' 8.5 by 11 inch 110 pound cardstock.

Construction:
All you need is one sheet o' 8.5 by 11 inch 110 pound cardstock, a spent Micromaxx motor casin' (for insertion of thrust rin' and nose cone shoulder), 1/4 inch dowel (to roll tube), tape, Elmer's white glue, and Loctite super glue.

Roll body tube, make motor adapter, me hearties, insert thrust ring, and cut and mount fins. Well, blow me down! Arrr! Then roll nose cone, me hearties, make nose cone shoulder, ya bilge rat, and insert 2 BBs for nose weight. Begad! Finally, me hearties, shiver me timbers, form launch lug. Well, blow me down! It takes less than an hour t' build due to it's simple design.

Flight and Recovery:
This one uses Micromaxx motors and takes advantage o' those tiny 1/8 A motors. Avast! Flights up t' 150-200 feet are possible with this bird. Ya scallywag! Ya scallywag! I also flew a FlisKits Doohicky and t' Cardinater beat it both in height and speed. It is pretty cool. Begad! Avast, me bucko, me proud beauty! It has had two flights so far and both were perfect. Avast, me proud beauty! I tied t' rig it up with a recovery system, but the tube is too small for even a shock cord so it just separates into two pieces and both fall down, me bucko, landin' within 10 feet of each other.

Summary:
I like t' Cardinater. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Ya scallywag! Blimey! It looks and flies great. Ya scallywag! Blimey! Well, matey, blow me down! Blimey! What else could you want? Maybe multi stage, me bucko, but it is good as a single stage rocket. Avast! Blimey! Arrr! Blimey! I should make a whole fleet o' cardstock Micromaxx rockets! Blimey! PROs: No waddin' needed, shiver me timbers, arrr, arrr, free, ya bilge rat, me bucko, simple design, high and fast flights, good looks. CONs: It uses lawndart recovery which can damage t' rocket over time so when flying, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, call heads up please.
