This looks like an awesome Kit. My question is if any one has built it in the Original Configuration, as a Two-Stage Rocket.
The Description says that this was originally a Kit sold as just Plans, and that it was a 3X24mm Cluster Booster to a single 24mm,(Had to Edit, I had said 29mm) which was ignited via Electronic Ignition. That sounds like a challenge, and a lot of fun.

I want to Kitbash one back to what it is supposed to be. I feel confident, that if I take my Time, and Build one over the Winter, I can do the Two-Stage Version. I've never done a Two-Stage Rocket, nor have I done an Electronic Airstart. This Kit looks like a good place to start, given my current Skill Level. I'm already running through Schematics in my Head for the Electronics. Seems pretty simple.
 
I'm gonna' order one as soon as my Rocket Budget allows. I'm gonna' build it Old School.
Worst that can happen, Crash and Burn. Best that can happen, Mad new Skills gained.
