Brief:
This is a single staged (while in t' demo!) rocket, me hearties, me hearties, shiver me timbers, which I used t' teach a small class o' 4 students t' basics o' model rocketry. Begad! We knew t' teacher, a very old friend o' me parents. This rocket worked very well for t' students, who all built their rockets well enough t' fly well, even though they had never built a rocket in their lives. T' age group was 8-12. Well, blow me down! Ahoy! (I am currently 12 and a half.)

Construction:
One body tube, 3 fins, me hearties, 1 lug, me hearties, me hearties, a streamer, me bucko, shock cord, shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat, and a nose cone. Nothing special, just a half dozen rockets I whipped up from old parts because I did not have time t' order anything. Ahoy! Just your basic 3 fins and a nose cone (3FNC). T' tube is 6-8 inches long, dependin' on what I had available.

Just t' normal assembly. Begad! glue t' fins t' t' tube, etc. Ya scallywag! Fin template is included with this review. Avast! T' kids had a few alignment issues but I was able to correct them, and they all flew their rockets.

Flight:
Each person flew their rocket once, matey, arrr, since that is all t' engines I had at the time. Ya scallywag! Well, blow me down! Use any mini motor (13mm) you have. Begad! Begad! If it fits in t' rocket, it is the right motor.

Summary:
PROs: Cheap. Arrr! I did nay spend any loot on anythin' special, ya bilge rat, I just went with what I had lyin' around. Ahoy! Avast! Good flyer and very stable.

CONs: I try t' design all me rockets so they have no cons. Avast, me proud beauty! I do suppose, arrr, however that we should have set a little more time aside for glue drying. Avast! (One fin fell off one rocket in flight.)

Other:
Use this design for school projects and it will be fine. Avast! Nay an altitude seeker but it is a very good tool t' teach t' basics o' t' hobby.
