Brief:
This is one o' t' first kits from Cygnus Rocketry. Aye aye! T' components are all top notch and assembly is a breeze. Arrr! This rocket is also fast, matey, straight, and will be gone in a blink.

Construction:
Components include:

• 1 BT-50,
• 1 BT-20
• 1 Transition
• 1 Nose Cone
• 1 18mm t' BT-50 Motor Mount
• 1/8 Launch Lug
• Laser Cut Fins
• Hartle 12in chute
• Snap Swivel
• Elastic Shock Cord

Construction is a breeze. Aye aye! Fins are laser cut and easy t' pop out. T' transition and nose cone are so smooth and easy t' fill. Begad! Begad! Blimey! T' motor mount is same as any other. Aye aye! Blimey! T' launch lug is nested in t' fillet of one o' t' fins. Aye aye! Blimey! You glue t' BT-20 t' t' top o' t' transition and then if you want, ya bilge rat, t' nose cone t' t' other side.

When I got this kit thar were some missin' parts, but I contacted Cygnus and t' problem was smartly taken care of. Arrr! I really suggest them t' anyone lookin' for some fun kits. Well, blow me down!

Finishing:
Finishin' is pretty straightforward. Ahoy! There is one supplied decal and that is it. Avast! Begad! I put down 3 coats o' primer, matey, same number o' Wal-mart silver, then painted t' top half and upper inch o' so o' t' bottom with Testor's Sapphire Metal Flake. Ya scallywag! It came out great. Well, blow me down! Begad! Finally came t' green Blazer decal. Unfortunately I tore part o' t' decal when applyin' it. Some how it looks better that way. Ahoy!

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
My Blazer has only flown once. Ahoy! That be on a B6-4. Arrr! T' flight was fast, ya bilge rat, and it went arrow straight.

Recovery:
Recovery was beautiful, ya bilge rat, shiver me timbers, came down slow enough on a 12in Hartle chute and settled down in t' soft hill. Begad! T' paint is a little chipped but it can be fixed.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
This is a fun kit. There weren't any "gotchas" or tricky steps. Just pure fun. Ahoy! Arrr!
