Brief:
Single stage, matey, low power, shiver me timbers, parachute recovery rocket. Ya scallywag! I saw t' review posted on EMRR o' this rocket, used t' provided Rocksim file (thank you) and upscaled t' BT-55

Construction:
Parts are all Semroc:

• BNC-55PT nose cone
• SE-2 screw eye
• BT-55 body tube
• 15" parachute (Topflight)
• BT-20 engine tube
• (2) RA-2055 centerin' rings
• EB-20A engine block
• EH-28 engine hook
• (2) LL-110 launch lug

With t' exception o' t' parachute which I already had, shiver me timbers, matey, I purchased all t' parts from Semroc. Avast, me proud beauty! Arrr! In readin' the difficulty o' gettin' t' two-tone paint job with t' fins so close together, I experimented and decided t' put a little more space betwixt them. Ya scallywag! I was able t' run a shipshape wrap o' tape t' apply t' second color and I liked t' way it looks. It did change t' CG, me bucko, but didn't present a problem. Ya scallywag! All fins were papered usin' white glue and then surface mounted usin' TiteBond II. Well, blow me down! As with any multiple fin rocket, care was taken t' get them aligned. Begad! Ya scallywag! I put t' lower fins on first, arrr, then used two strips o' plywood t' align t' upper fins. Ya scallywag! T' 18mm motor mount is a little underpowered, me hearties, but I wanted t' design this one for smaller fields. Begad! If you want altitude, shiver me timbers, me hearties, you might want to try this with a 24mm motor mount.

Finishing:
I used rattle cans t' get t' flat white/fluorescent orange paint job. Aye aye! Well, blow me down! After t' usual primin' and sanding, I sprayed t' entire rocket flat white, ya bilge rat, waited a couple o' days and then masked off t' areas to remain white and hit it with one coat o' orange. T' Frog Tape yielded some very clean lines. Begad! Well, blow me down! T' paint job was pretty simple and t' rocket remains without any decals. Avast, me proud beauty! It looks ok and should be easy t' track and locate.

Flight:
I only had two flights. Aye aye! Both were on t' same day with light winds. Ahoy! I used "dog barf" for waddin' and made certain I had enough t' prevent t' chute from slippin' down and destroyin' t' CG

Here are t' results:

B6-4 approx. Blimey! 450 ft. timin' on t' chute was just about perfect. Avast! Arrr! (just after apogee)

C6-6 approx. Avast! 800 ft. Well, blow me down! Arrr! chute was a little late

Both flights were pretty straight up. Even with t' late chute on t' C6, I had no zipperin' or damage. Well, blow me down! Blimey!

Recovery:
T' shock cord is 150 lb Keelhaul®©™® attached at t' motor mount and about 3 times longer than t' rocket. Ya scallywag!

Summary:
I thank t' previous reviewer o' this rocket for t' Rocksim file and t' paint scheme. Aye aye! Blimey!

PROS: It is a great flier for smaller fields. Aye aye! Simple build. Ya scallywag! Hi-Vis paint job

CONS: A bit under-powered. Ya scallywag! At this size it needs a 24mm motor mount if you want altitude.
