Brief
This is an Estes single stage rocket t' be flown on D size engines. Blimey! Arrr!

Construction
T' kit came in a hangin' box display and be packaged very well. All t' parts were intact. I think it was manufactured before they had skill levels on the box. Avast! But I would say probably a skill level 2. Blimey! Blimey! T' tube couplers were nay quite long enough t' keep t' body tubes straight. Blimey! As long as you keep an eye on them while gluin' thar be no problem.

Finishing
T' kit was painted with standard krylon paint. Well, blow me down! Ya scallywag! And t' decals went on very nicely. Avast, me proud beauty! All in all it is a very good lookin' rocket. Ahoy!

Flight
T' first flight be on a D12-7 and t' delay was t' long. Ahoy! Blimey! It opened on t' way down, me hearties, and thar was no damage. Well, blow me down! Blimey! T' second flight was on an E30-4 and it flies great. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Opened at apogee perfectly. Ya scallywag! Blimey! I have had at least 20 flights without a single problem. Blimey! Blimey! Well, blow me down! Blimey!

I am plannin' on tryin' F24-7 and F39-10 Aerotech reloads. Ya scallywag! Avast!

Recovery
I did nay use t' supplied shock cord. Begad! Avast! Blimey! I used 1/8" elastic cord about 5' long epoxied a loop t' t' inside o' t' tube. I also made me own rip stop nylon chute. Avast, me proud beauty! Aye aye! Blimey! 24" with a 2" spill hole. Begad! It floats down really nice. Blimey! I have never had any damage on this rocket.

Summary
Overall I would say that this is a great kit. Avast! If you can find it, arrr, it is well worth building. Arrr! It be kind o' on t' pricy side but for t' number o' flights I have had it is very reasonable. T' only thin' I would change is t' have the body couplers a little longer. Ya scallywag!

Overall Rating: 4 ½ out o' 5
