Skill Level 4 Simulated Jet Engines and Unusual Wings Give the Kit a Unique Look. The kit has several challenging steps, which include cutting jet engine tubes at an angle, and creating wings out of multiple pieces of balsa.
The BT-70 size nose cone requires no finishing other than a coat of paint. Its 5:1 ogive shape is very efficient for high speed rocket flights. The kit actually comes with two nose cones! The second one is converted to a drag-reducing boattail by cutting off the tip and the base.
Like the other kits from "DynaStar Mid-Power Rockets", the LexxJet is designed to fly on the less expensive "D" size black-powder rocket motors. And it will give you the same performance as other mid-power kits that require "E" and "F" size composite propellant rocket motors. The lighter weight rocket allow the rocket to fly faster and higher.
