Dynasoar Rocketry designs and manufactures unique Radio Controlled Rocket Plane kits for people who have previous fixed wing R/C airplane experience. These kits are cut by hand personally by me using 6mm depron foam, and include high quality lightweight tubing, plastic nose cones, carbon fiber rods, 3m blenderm and velcro tape, railbuttons.com rail buttons and dubro hardware. The designs are quick and simple to build, can launch from a normal 1010 rail that accepts rail buttons and nothing is ejected from the model, simply replace the motor and fly again immediately. Complete build instructions and photos are available online to help with assembly and setup, see this page for Items needed for completion. High quality cut vinyl self adhesive decals are available for my kits from a third party mfg as noted in the directions for each kit. Click on the kit photos below to view the instructions. These kits are designed ONLY for the composite motors listed in the kit descriptions below.

Kits for 18mm D-13 Rocket motors
Blackbird 1/48 scale 18mm Kit
The 1/48 scale Blackbird R/C rocket glider kit is for advanced pilots and builders. The model boosts quickly but has a very nice glide and easy flare for landing. It includes pre-slotted body and nacelle tubes, pre-punched rail button holes, plastic nose cone, rail buttons, 6mm depron wing and tail surfaces, wing pre-slotted for the carbon spar, control surfaces are pre-hinged, includes blenderm tape and all hardware to construct the model except for paint, glue electroncs and decals. This model is designed specifically for the Aerotech 18mm reload casing and 18mm D-13 reloads without ejection charge. I recommend using the plugged forward closure or plugging the normal closure with jb weld to avoid any delay flame from damaging the internal wing structure. ***Note that this kit is below the 250 gram(8.8oz) ready to fly limit and does not require FAA drone pilot registration and markings and will not require remote ID. 1/48 scale Blackbird 18mm R/C Rocket glider kit: $61.49 plus $13.50 USPS Priority Mail (9 kits remaining)

Aurora Clipper 24mm Kit
The Aurora Clipper 24mm RC Rocket plane kit is a sleek futuristic looking design. This is our most popular kit and the best choice for your first R/C rocketplane. It features a low mounted delta wing with dihedral, a plastic nose cone, white tubing for the body and depron wing and tail surfaces.

Wing elevons are pre-hinged and spars are pre-installed. The body tube is pre-slotted for the tail surface and rail buttons are side mounted to avoid catching on the ground during landing. ***Note that this kit is below the 250 gram(8.8oz) ready to fly limit and does not require FAA drone pilot registration and markings and will not require remote ID.
