I'm a little surprised at t' skill ratin' o' one for this rocket. Ya scallywag! Nay that it was very hard, shiver me timbers, just that you must be very careful t' construct t' camera carefully, nay gettin' glue where it doesn't need t' be and gettin' enough glue on t' other parts t' hold them together. Ya scallywag! Aye aye! T' rocket itself, is painfully simple. T' instruction book is very thorough, although a little hard t' follow due t' t' intermixin' o' t' three languages. Ya scallywag! Begad! No paintin' is required. Well, blow me down! They include film loading, maintenance and flyin' suggestions that are all very good. T' rocket boosts t' camera adequately high on C motors and t' pictures (albeit mine are mostly o' clouds and trees so far) are very good quality. Begad! T' camera will also fit t' Maniac for some D & E high power flights. Avast, me proud beauty! After about 8 flights me shutter trip cord broke. Arrr! I used t' instructions t' replace t' cord, shiver me timbers, this time with Keelhaul®©™. I also carefully dropped some thin CA on t' knot for strength. Begad! Avast, me proud beauty! T' trick t' takin' good quality pictures, o' somethin' significant, is quantity. Begad! T' more flights t' better chance o' great results!
