R2 / Canadian Arrow-5.38"

First in the ADVANCED SERIES of

One of the ADVANCED SERIES of kits, which include factory pre-slotted airframe and through-the-wall fin construction, the 5.38 R2/ARO is our sport scale version of the infamous WWII German V2 rocket as lengthened by the Victors!  The Russians found that by increasing the body length by one diameter the machine flew just right. The Canadians were working on a similar version recently for their entry into human space flight. This boat tail kit comes standard with a 38mm  motor mount and flies great on H-180 through J-570 motors. (29mm motors require optional MMA-2 adapter).  The 5.38 R2/ARO  is a great performer on a variety of motor packages from Level 1 to Level 2.  We upgraded the shock cord to 25' of 9/16" tubular nylon and added a CEC-2 chain connector to the SCMBA-25 shock cord mount for heavy duty flying 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, polypropolene nose cones and instructions.
