Brief:
This is one o' t' first kits from Cygnus Rocketry. Arrr! T' components are all top notch and assembly is a breeze. Arrr! Well, blow me down! Blimey! This rocket is also fast, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, me bucko, 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. Well, blow me down! Fins are laser cut and easy t' pop out. Begad! T' transition and nose cone are so smooth and easy t' fill. Begad! Begad! T' motor mount is same as any other. Begad! T' launch lug is nested in t' fillet of one o' t' fins. Avast! You glue t' BT-20 t' t' top o' t' transition and then if you want, t' nose cone t' t' other side.

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

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

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
My Blazer has only flown once. That was on a B6-4. Arrr! T' flight be fast, and it went arrow straight. Well, blow me down!

Recovery:
Recovery was beautiful, came down slow enough on a 12in Hartle chute and settled down in t' soft hill. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! T' paint is a little chipped but it can be fixed.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5
