Blackhawk 38

Went supersonic yesterday on J500G, 10075 AGL, flying EF Quantum and MiniGPS. Short stroll across open desert to recover it, perfect condition. Robust, fun rocket.

PS captured in only one frame, just the first puff of smoke. Green flash and gone!

I am still in the assemble process of this kit but I have nothing but praise for the kit. In about 3 weeks this rocket is going supersonic.

High quality kit, looking forward to this build..

I can't find any instructions for any of the minimum diameter kits (the Blackhawk models). I figured what all the parts are for, except for a 1-inch long red round piece that fits like a coupler inside the body tube. I was told it was for the motor retainer but don't have a clue how its placed in the rocket.

Also, I was put off by the fact that the parachute and the fin guides were not packed with the initial shipment. The matter was dealt with quickly (thank you) but this sort of thing should rarely happen if ever. Maybe you should to invest in another layer of QC before each order goes out.

First class quality all through.
My first min diameter rocket, learned a lot surface mounting the fins and working the the volume constraints for GPS and e-skids (Doghouse charge wells!).
Perfect first flight [I245G] at Lucern w/ a flyaway rail guide, walked straight to landing with Eggfinder, altitude just shy of Rocksim predicted.
Planning a max altitude flight at FAR later this year.
