ImageSALEM, Oregon USA — Binder Design is proud to announce the release of a new limited edition rocket kit named the "CERTI-FIRE in the Sky." The "CERTI-FIRE in the Sky" is a limited edition kit to promote the Fire in the Sky 2010 launch, which will take place May 28-30 in Mansfield, Washington.

The "CERTI-FIRE in the Sky" is a 4" diameter rocket that was designed for Level 1 and Level 2 certifications and is available with a 38mm or 54mm motor mount. It comes with the brand new Binder Design EZ Motor Retainer that can retain all current motor hardware including snap ring style.

Binder Design is making it easy to add dual deployment capability to this rocket by offering an dual deploy upgrade kit that includes their Avionics Bay kit, additional airframe section, recovery harness, and a drogue parachute. The "CERTI-FIRE in the Sky" comes with a F.I.T.S. decal package that includes the F.I.T.S. 2010 logo and flame decals for the fins.

Binder Design owner Mike Fisher says, "We were very honored to be contacted by the launch organizers of F.I.T.S. because Fire in the Sky was originally started by our company founder Scott Binder."

Dave Randall, F.I.T.S. 2010 Co-Launch Director adds, "For FITS 2010, Washington Aerospace Club wanted to feature a unique rocket kit specially tailored to the high power fliers at our premier annual launch. We knew Binder Design could deliver an affordable rocket that would stand out at the FITS launch and allow fliers to achieve Level 1 or Level 2 certification. And Binder Design came through with a great look, an option for dual deployment, and 38mm and 54mm configurations. Wow! We are ecstatic with the results!"

Binder Design will also be donating a "CERTI-FIRE in the Sky" kit to be given away to one lucky winner at the F.I.T.S launch raffle.

In addition, purchasers of the "CERTI-FIRE in the Sky" will receive a coupon good for a $10 discount on motor hardware from Binder Design's onsite F.I.T.S. launch dealer, Sunriver Nature Center & Observatory. Combine that with the current AeroTech or CTI reload discount for fliers attempting Level 1 or Level 2 certification, and you have one sweet deal.

For fliers that want to save on shipping, the "CERTI-FIRE in the Sky" can be ordered for delivery to F.I.T.S., or Binder Design can ship now to build in time for the launch. Pre-orders for F.I.T.S. delivery can be placed through Binder Design or Sunriver Nature Center & Observatory.

Nice looking kit. Nice idea to have a "commemorative" kit for a major launch like FITS.

Now, if I wasn't in the middle of a scratch built project ...
