rocket glider
I'm looking for an RC rocket boosted glider kit. I'd like it to have ailerons and some way to build in a small payload like a camera.
Suggestions? I'm willing to do some custom building myself but it would be nice to start with a kit. |

I'm not aware of any currently available. The R/C stuff I've seen here are scratch build upscales.

There are a number of models in the hand launched world (look for discuss launched/DLG) that can easily be converted to rocket flight, though adding a payload camera is a little tricky given that they generally don't have a lot of cockpit space. One of my favorites in terms of ease of build and conversion is the arthobby.com Colibri, with a 1 meter wing span, wing comes already skinned, flies fine on a D, amazing on an E, and runs for about $90-$100 plus radio gear.

Cynic,
Here's one that flies fairly well. Not as well as the venerable Aerotech Phoenix, but a good flyer nonetheless: http://cgi.ebay.com/Estes-Strato-Bl...=item3cae2d54b9 Allen |
