LOC Precision Flying Model Rocket Kit Starfighter  LOC PK-07 

The STAR FIGHTER 152 is a unique “Airplane” style rocket design that flies best on Aerotech F and G motors. Typical flight pattern is straight up with a half twist into the wind and glide to parachute deployment near apogee. New stabilizer construction is one piece with slide fit into a slot on the fin for easier alignment and gluing. The launch lug is covered by a shroud to complete the illusion of the intake duct. Parachute Recovery!

All LOC/PRECISION “PK-XX” kits include heavy duty airframe and motor mount tubes, high-grade precision-cut plywood fins, centering rings, rip-stop nylon parachute or streamer, nylon elastic shock cord and mount, launch lug, polypropylene nose cones and instructions.
