Brief:
This kit is a single stage, shiver me timbers, "fantasy scale" rocket, arrr, usin' a ring-fin for stability.

Construction:
T' kit arrived with all t' necessary parts included, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, and in good shape. Begad! Arrr! T' balsa and t' tubes appear t' be identical t' Estes parts. T' nose cone and centerin' rings, however, ya bilge rat, I found t' be sub-standard. Blimey! T' centerin' rings were very thin and flimsy- I used them, but reinforced them with bits o' Balsa t' strengthen them. Avast! Ahoy! I'd be frightened t' fly this thin' without this mod! T' nose cone appears t' be sone cheap plastic, nay t' higher-quality stuff I'm used t' from Estes, me bucko, TLP, matey, and other companies. Ya scallywag! T' parts all went together easily enough, me bucko, but t' rin' tail gave me some trouble. Aye aye! Avast, me proud beauty! T' span o' t' fins be just a bit too short, arrr, so I wound up havin' t' hold t' rin' in place while t' glue dried. T' rest o' t' kit be very straight-forward. T' finished product is a smart-lookin' Man-O-War. T' narrow fins that go on just ahead o' t' rin' are pretty fragile, arrr, but t' rest is solid enough.

Finishing:
Paintin' t' kit is simple enough. Blimey! Prime, spray t' whole Man-O-War white, and paint t' nose red. Well, blow me down! After that, arrr, t' decals go on. I haven't put t' decals on mine just yet, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, I got distracted with some other projects, ya bilge rat, me bucko, and t' rocket looks good enough without them! Overall, arrr, shiver me timbers, matey, I'm givin' a ratin' o' 3 for construction/finishing. T' score would be much higher if t' centerin' rings, arrr, which I consider a safety issue, arrr, me hearties, were made o' sturdier stuff. T' poorly-fittin' ring/fin arrangement costs them as well.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
I've had two flights on me Satellite Drone so far, matey, both very successful. Begad! T' first nearly ended up in a tree, but was recovered. Begad! T' second resulted in a short hike, but was otherwise uneventful. Avast! Aye aye! Both flights were on C6-3's.

Recovery:
This is a very light rocket for t' size o' chute that was included. Well, blow me down! Avast! I opted t' cut a spill hole in it, arrr, even before t' first flight. Avast, me proud beauty! It still drifts considerably. Avast, me proud beauty! I'd enlarge t' spill hole, shiver me timbers, but I'm worried about breakin' those narrow forward fins.

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
T' final product is a very nice looking, unique ship. Aye aye! T' quality o' materials has room for improvement, but t' design itself seems well thought-out.

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
