Skill Level 4 – Slightly Challenging

Imagine owning a business jet with an extra kick of rock-
et power in its rear. That is what the LexxJet is all about. 
It is luxury flying with extra speed and acceleration.

The DynaStar LexxJet is another cool-looking model 
designed by that famous rocket inventor, Shrox. But 
what will really get your kit noticed is that it doesn’t have 
the usual shape of a model rocket. It doesn’t look like it 
should fly straight, but it does!

This kit is slightly challenging to build. You will need to 
cut the body tubes at an angle, and attach fins to the 
curved section of a plastic boattail. Be sure to carefully 
follow the instructions and you should not have any 
problems. You’ll end up with a great looking rocket that 
all your friends will envy.
