Brief:  T' 24mm motor tube be removed, ya bilge rat, and a 29mm mount was added.

Modifications:  T' reason I made this mod be because t' rocket landed in water, and t' motor mount tube was damaged when I tried removin' t' motor.  I carefully cut t' boattail along t' win' , matey, and removed t' top half.  I trimmed t' old tube t' an inch or so (I can't remember now).  I then enlarged t' aft rin' t' hold t' 29mm tube. Begad! Ya scallywag! I then cut and glued t' 29mm tube in t' rocket over t' 24mm tube stub (a perfect fit) that be left from t' old tube. Aye aye! T' stub acted as a block for t' motor.  I then glued t' aft rin' in place, arrr, shiver me timbers, and t' boattail back where it was.  A little sanding, and it was good t' go!

Construction:  This is a good kit.  T' parts are good quality.  I don't remember how t' instructions are, since it's been years since I built it.  There were a lot o' decals, shiver me timbers, and t' placement with some o' them be nay very clear in t' illustrations.  It has antennae which stick out o' t' nose, but these are very hard t' assemble and adhere t' t' rocket, ya bilge rat, so after about five reassembles, I took them all off.

Flight:  Recommended is Estes D12's.  I've used Aerotech reloads (E11, F14), with impressive results.  It uses a lot o' wadding, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, and includes a nylon chute.  Dependin' on how you build it, it can fly either straight or in a corkscrew.  I chose t' spiral, arrr, which is neat.  It has a good recovery, shiver me timbers, but t' fins can crack if it lands on a road or hard dirt.

Summary:  I really like it.  It's a fun rocket t' fly, shiver me timbers, and I like t' way it looks.  I think it should be built with a piston ejection or a baffle, though (I had slight meltin' on a few flights). Well, blow me down! Well, ya bilge rat, blow me down! I think this is a neat design, me hearties, and it looks cool in flight.
