Brief:
T' smallest o' t' Corn on t' Cob shaped oddroc collections by First Flight Hobby. Well, blow me down! This rocket once complete is really cute and fun. Avast, me proud beauty! Promises t' be a head turner and also a great flyer.

Construction:
T' parts include:

• One styrene foam corncob
• one body tube
• 13mm tube for mmt
• engine block
• (2) centerin' rings
• small bag o' bb's
• 8" parachue
• (2) sheets balsa fin stock
• Keelhaul®©™® shock cord mount
• elestic shock cord
• motor hook
• instructions
• snap swivel
• small screw eye
• noseblock
• chut reinforcin' tapes
• launch lug
• bag o bb's with corn husk scraps
• shroud line

To build this oddroc, me bucko, you first need to assemble t' engine mount and stuffer tube assembly. After buildin' t' engine mount, t' instructions say after gluein' t' cord t' t' engine mount t' feed t' Keelhaul®©™® cord through t' stuffer tube. Aye aye! A better means is t' feed t' free end into t' mmt so that it is hangin' out t' back then gluein' t' mount in place. Begad! This allows you more control when t' time comes t' tie t' shock cord t' t' Keelhaul®©™®.

Next part is t' carefully cut t' four channels into t' foam corn for t' fins. Begad! I used and would suggest a Dremel™ with a 1/8" cuttin' wheel attachment on its 2nd t' lowest settin' while usein' a peice o' angle iron for a guide. This t' give you a good clean cut.

Once that is done, me hearties, you want t' mount t' stuffer tube . Blimey! TEST FIT FIRST! I found I needed t' wrap 5 turns of maskin' tape aroung t' middle t' get a snug fit before glueing. Ahoy! T' next thin' you do is sand and fit t' nose block. Make sure it fits well enough so theat when you put t' cap on it matches with t' orientation o' t' corn.

Usin' 5 or 15 min epoxy glue t' block in place (while t' block is in t' tube so t' aide in t' alignment). Blimey! Arrr! Let t' rocket dry NOSE DOWN for a least an hour before goin' on. Arrr! While t' nose and body are drying, cut out t' fins, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, sealin' and sandin' until your happy. Avast! Aye aye! Leave them natural t' match t' hust on t' corn. Ahoy!

All in all this rocket was one o' t' most enjoyable build I have done in a while. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey!

Finishing:
T' only finishin' needed is a touch o' flat matt non corrosive paint t' protect t' rocket and maybe usin' some epoxy paint on t' inner exposed foam t' protect it from damage.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
Packin' and readyin' this bird for flight is easy. Ahoy! And she looks great on t' pad. Aye aye! Slightly slow at launch but screamed into t' air nay straight but nay unsafe either. Avast! She arched and ejected and recovered 20 feet from t' pad with no damage

T' scond flight was t' same except that this time she weather-cocked then corrected t' a great flight and normal recovery. Ya scallywag!

Recovery:
T' 8" chute seems fine but I might cut a streamer for windy days. Ahoy! Other than that, ya bilge rat, recovery is great

Flight Rating: 4 out o' 5

Summary:
This rocket is a head turner and I feel that it is a must have for anyone who likes small odd rocks or like me just likes t' take strange things t' t' race and fly them while others look at you like your crazy.

Overall Rating: 5 out o' 5

Other:
Use foam freindly glues and sealers as some epoxy's may melt t' stirine.
