Kits and Pricing

The comprehensive Radial Rocket airframe kit includes pre-molded outer skins which utilize pre-preg
materials that are vacuumed bagged and oven cured, yielding components optimized for light weight,
high strength, and aerodynamic cleanliness. Carbon fiber materials are used in selected areas of the
airframe, such as wing spar caps and fuselage longerons, to give even greater weight savings and
strength.

The fuselage consists of left and right halves, which include the vertical stabilizer. Pre-molded
overlapping joggles ensure quick and accurate fuselage shell assembly. Flat pre-molded, honeycomb
core panels are supplied in the kit for fabrication of internal ribs and bulkheads, for the fuselage as well
as for the flying surfaces. The one-piece wing is supplied with the forward and aft spars completed and
installed. Following installation of the wing ribs, aileron and flap actuating hardware is installed,
followed by main gear strut installation and fuel tank completion. The “wet wing” fuel bays are sealed
with an epoxy fuel sealer supplied in the kit. The wing is then closed utilizing a structural adhesive
chosen for strength and more than adequate working time. Ailerons and flaps are built in place on the
wing fixture, ensuring an accurate airfoil.

In addition to the molded airframe skins and flat panels, the Radial Rocket kit includes, the engine
mount, landing gear ( including wheels, tires, tubes, brakes, and struts), windshield and canopy, control
system components and all hardware required to assemble the supplied airframe components. All
weldments are complete – no welding required. Standard kit features include electric flaps and 3-axis
electric trim. The list of included kit components is quite extensive, is included in the purchase
agreement and is available upon request.

Custom Build Services: Beyond the Fast-Build, we offer custom build services tailored specifically
for you. For example, you may choose to have your wing and horizontal tail assembled and closed at
our factory, eliminating the need to build assembly fixtures at your location. Combined with a Fast-
Build fuselage, your Radial Rocket would be on the gear and in the final assembly/systems installation
phase very quickly. Call us for more Custom Build Service info.
