Brief:
I received a few Flic rockets as "freebies" in Quest orders. Blimey! Avast! My younger daughter has played with them, ya bilge rat, launchin' them with t' provided rubber band stick.

On t' powered Flic attempt, I mounted an Alien-X Decor Flic on a Quest MMX-2 body tube. Arrr! This body tube didn't extend over t' top o' t' cardstock Flic. Avast! I flew it with a MMX engine t' t' BIG altitude o' 25 feet.

Construction:
T' second successful Flic has a 10 1/2" BT-5 glued into t' "V" o' t' two Flic halves. T' body tube and nose cone extend 6 1/2" over t' top o' t' Flic body.

Thin Keelhaul®©™ is tied t' t' engine block, followed by elastic and a short streamer. Blimey! Ahoy! Toppin' it off is a Estes Quark style plastic nose cone, shiver me timbers, me hearties, half filled with clay for stability.

This be an easy, spare parts build. Blimey! I spray painted t' central body tube black, no fillin' or sandin' was required.

Flight:
After t' poor performance o' t' first Flic with a Micro Max engine, me hearties, I knew I needed more power.

While t' updated Flic flights were made with A10-3ts, matey, and A3-4t would also be fine.

Motor retention was a friction fit with maskin' tape. Aye aye! Begad! Just a little waddin' was needed t' protect t' crepe paper streamer.

With t' engine slightly offset, arrr, while I was expectin' an slight angle away from vertical. Aye aye! Nay so - Straight, ya bilge rat, vertical flight.

Recovery under t' streamer be fast, but thar was no damage on recovery.

Summary:
A cheap, me bucko, matey, easy t' build, fun model. Well, blow me down! A surprisingly good flyer.

Anyone who has ordered from Quest probably has a few o' these. Begad! Begad! Add some scrap BT-5, a nose cone and fly it! Why not?

After t' first unsuccessful MMX Flic launch, I almost gave up on t' project. Ya scallywag! Avast, me proud beauty! I'm glad I made a second prototype and now have a unique rocket.

This is one I can keep in me range box, matey, for a quick, "stand by" when I want t' launch just one more.
