Brief:
This is an upscale o' Art's 13mm Cinco flyin' saucer. Ahoy! (T' original is a free kit available as a download off Art's website.) I built this after Art's Ultra Delta and couldn't believe it has even fewer parts: three total. That's it! The kit is all cardstock and can be built with either an 18mm or 24mm motor mount. Blimey!

Construction:
It consists o' two sheets o' cardstock, containin' three parts that need t' be cut out.

Materials required are scissors, X-Acto knife with new blade, Elmer's white glue, new or used engine casing, ballpoint pen.

This kit involves cutting, matey, folding, ya bilge rat, and gluing. Arrr! Aye aye! It has three parts, what else do I need t' say? Tips for this one: 1) don't use too much glue. Avast, me proud beauty! 2) In the last step when you insert t' motor tube into t' shell, insert t' mount with a motor in it. Ya scallywag! Ahoy! This will make t' mount's insertion a bit easier.

Finishing:
As usual, finishin' involves a few coats o' clear coat.

Construction Rating: 5 out o' 5

Flight:
T' recommended motors are:

Flight prep includes friction fittin' t' motor. Ya scallywag! Aye aye! Unlike t' Ultra Delta, this kit is intended t' only fly on Estes 2.75" motors. Begad! Aye aye! I deducted 1/2 point because I love t' fly these small saucers on E9s.

I flew t' 24mm version at t' 3rd Annual TRF Reunion at Whitakers, ya bilge rat, NC on a D12-0 alongside a standard saucer, me bucko, a Delta saucer, and an Ultra Delta Saucer. Avast! If flew great but fought t' wind and weathercocked more than t' Ultra Delta, shiver me timbers, shiver me timbers, so I dinged it another 1/2 point, shiver me timbers, if only t' make a differentiation betwixt t' two.

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
This is yet another simple, inexpensive, high performance saucer kit. Well, blow me down! Ahoy! When I built t' saucer, matey, I was thinkin' that t' all cardstock 24mm design may nay be as sturdy as t' Art's other products. I know I only have one flight on it, shiver me timbers, but I now don't see that as an issue. Aye aye! Begad! T' one issue I see is that t' motor block, formed as a part o' t' motor tube, shiver me timbers, will be exposed t' hot gasses whether you use booster or sustainer motors. Ya scallywag! Since most people will nay be usin' plugged motors, arrr, arrr, t' life expectancy o' t' rocket will be reduced. Well, blow me down! Begad! After one flight it was sooty but thar was no evidence o' damage.
