Brief:
T' 18mm Pyramid is a saucer-style rocket that flies on 18mm motors. Begad! At ejection, shiver me timbers, t' motor mount separates from t' main body then t' motor mount tumbles t' t' ground while t' main body gently floats t' t' ground.

Construction:
This kit consists o' two sheets o' printed cardstock with four pages o' detailed instructions with pictures. Blimey! There are four main sub-assemblies: t' main body, me bucko, motor mount tube, ya bilge rat, motor mount skirt, matey, ya bilge rat, and an internal nose cone, which be t' receptacle for t' motor tube.

T' instructions were easy t' follow and I completed t' rocket within two hours. Begad! T' only tools needed are scissors, X-Acto knife, white glue, arrr, ruler and a pen.

T' main body and t' internal nose cone are glued together t' form one part o' t' rocket, and t' motor tube and motor skirt are glued together t' form t' motor mount for t' rocket. Well, blow me down! Avast! All o' parts fit together well.

Finishing:
T' instructions recommend sprayin' t' rocket with clear coat. Aye aye! Blimey! T' 18mm Pyramid is available in several bright colors and I chose nay t' add a finish t' t' rocket.

Construction Rating: 5 out o' 5

Flight:
T' design o' t' motor mount tube is very nice. Ahoy! Aye aye! T' square motor tube has just t' right amount o' give t' firmly hold t' motor in place. Aye aye! I did nay have t' use maskin' tape for motor retention. Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! I used a small amount o' waddin' t' protect t' inside o' t' pyramid as suggested by t' instructions.

I launched t' 18mm Pyramid three times on A8-3, B6-2 and C6-3 motors. Arrr! Blimey! T' simulated altitudes for these three flights were 58, 82 and 161 feet. All three flights were great. T' first flight on t' A8-3 did turn into t' wind a bit. Begad! Blimey! T' B6-2 and t' C6-3 were both straight up.

Recovery:
In all three flights t' pyramid landed close t' t' launch pad. Blimey! At ejection, ya bilge rat, t' motor mount tumbles down while t' main part o' t' pyramid gently floats t' t' ground. Well, blow me down! Aye aye! This is a great rocket for all sizes o' launch fields.

After three launches thar be a small amount o' black power residue inside t' pyramid, ya bilge rat, but thar be no damage and I should be able t' launch t' pyramid many more times.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
This rocket is inexpensive and easy t' build. Well, blow me down! It flies straight up and t' recovery is always near t' launch pad. Avast! T' flight on t' C6-3 is a great crowd pleaser.
