New kit from Custom. Looks a little like a shortened Centuri Skylab with it's solar panel fins. Harder to build correctly than you'd think, a good display model. Flat vacuformed nose cone cap.

I used a Quest B6-4, this model has a smaller area to pressurize at ejection. The Quest engines tend to have weaker ejection charges.
No problems, full parachute deploy.
