Construction:
This be a kit...all parts were standard t' t' kit. Begad!
T' instructions were basic but that is in line with a 38mm high power kit. (not for beginners). T' kit went together great with all o' t' slots pre-cut by t' manufacturer. Well, blow me down! Good quality in all o' t' parts. T' kit is very strong after assembly and worked out great for me Level 2 Certification flight on a J350.
Finishing:
T' kit does nay come with t' standard set o' Bullpup decals which would have
been nice. Avast! Blimey! They are available on t' net if you search. Arrr!

Flight:
I flew t' kit on a J350 for a Level 2 flight. It flew straight as an arrow. Begad! I
also used t' Aeropack motor retention system which worked well. Avast! Ahoy! No waddin' was
used but thar was a Nomex® chute protector in place that had a large blast
pattern on it after t' flight. Highly recommend usin' them.
Recovery:
T' kit came with a flat nylon strap that connected t' t' motor tube and then
to a 1/4 tubular bungee cord. Begad! I used cable crimps t' create a loop at either
end o' t' bungee and used quick connects so t' chute and cord could be
removed for storage. T' system worked without a hitch. Avast! 3000ft flight that
landed 100 yards from t' pad. Begad! Blimey!
Although t' kit had a good 'chute I opted for t' SkyAngle 36"...Worked great.
I chose t' Nomex® instead o' usin' one o' t' various waddin' materials. Avast, me proud beauty! Well, blow me down! I modified t' shock cord out o' personal preference nay necessity. Both were not required so I don't feel t' need t' downgrade t' kit because o' it. Blimey!
Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5
Summary:
Would recommend t' kit t' others. Begad! Went together well and I will buy another PE
kit in t' future. Begad!
