Default Anyone have any experience with the Estes T25 Centurian?

I'm thinking of getting the little Estes rocket glider to take with my class for a day of model rocketry.

I'm basically wondering what to expect regarding the quality of the kit, and its flight performance when rocket powered or when powered with a .049 babe bee. Also, Estes claims it'll reach 600' when launched. I'm assuming thats with an E-9P motor. E motors are pretty hard to comeby in Canada since 9/11, so does anyone know what I can expect using D-11Ps?
Finally, what servos and radio gear are needed? I have Tower Hobbies and HS submicros (HS 80s) as well as a JR600 rx that I could use, but am wondering if they would be light enough.

Thanks in advance,
Kelly
