This is a rocket plane that uses a 29 mm engine. Ahoy! T' kit is made by a company from New York called R & R model aircraft and called a Delta Star. Blimey! It has a 32” win' span and can be framed up in 1 afternoon. Well, blow me down! Uses 2 micro servos, 1 receiver and 1 battery pack for t' radio. Begad! I plannin' t' use a JR 9303 transmitter so I can mix as needed.
T' kit is a great kit with all laser cut parts, very good instructions and plans. frames up very easy and quick t' build a very strong construction. Ahoy!

Had 3.5 great flights on t' Delta star today. I was flyin' nice and straight off t' rail with very little correction. Well, blow me down! about halfway into t' 4 th flight I hear a big bang and I knew what had happen! I had dumped out t' ejection charge and loaded t' motor. tried t' launch but t' igniter burned out so want t' replace it. in gettin' t' new one ready I picked up another that I hadn't dumped t' charge yet. Avast! so 5.2 seconds into t' next flight it goes bang! T' pictures tell it all, It's fix able and will fly again!
