- Kit features 12 quality 3D-printed ABS parts
- Features a full Dyna-Soar Titan II fin can, screw on motor retainer, removable screw on display engines, full instructions and vinyl body wrap decals
- Additional items required to complete Builders Kit:
The Boeing X-20 “Dynamic Soarer” was a United States Air Force program to develop a versatile space plane. Among the uses were aerial reconnaissance, bombing, space rescue, satellite maintenance and even an interceptor for enemy satellites. Boyce Aerospace Hobbies 3D-prints the Dyna-Soar in 12 quality ABS parts at 1:73rd scale. Our kit is the most accurate currently on the market, designed and developed using original data shared by Dr. Roy Houchin II, the author of US Hypersonic Research and Development: The Rise and Fall of 'Dyna-Soar', 1944-1963. The USAF cancelled the project after construction had begun and over $660 million US dollars (at the time) were spent. The program ran from October 24, 1957 to December 10, 1963. Although the Dyna-Soar never launched, ours can reach up to 575 feet on a recommended D12-5 motor. Each kit features a full Dyna-Soar Titan II fin can, screw on motor retainer, removable screw on display engines, full instructions and vinyl body wrap decals. The Boyce Aerospace Hobbies Dyna-Soar "Builders Kit" requires the additional purchase of one BT-60 and BT-50 body tube along with a 24" recovery parachute.
Boyce Aerospace Hobbies recommends hobbyists under the age of 13 be supervised by an adult at all times.
United Statesexcellent quality and detail
very nice kit. highly detailed printed parts. i received a broken part and it was replaced no questions asked. Thank you! hope you offer a kit with a glider X-20!
United StatesAwesome Dyna-Soar
The builders kits are my favorite, and I have build 3 of them! The instructions are just as needed. I like the stick-on plastic decal wrap, though I got better as the builds went along! Much easier for me to get them right than the fragile water slide type. Boyce provides great instructions!
United KingdomA Good Kit of an Unusual Subject
I was pleased by the quality of the components in this kit. They required some sanding to obtain a smooth finish, but this is often the case with 3D prints. Looking forward to flying the model.
United KingdomGood Quality
The kit is of good quality and I shall enjoy building it.
United StatesA really nice kit
Overall I am quite pleased with this kit! Boyd bridges the gap between precision glue together and traditional rocket kits. The scale appears to be on target. For a basic build it will be quick. If your target is realism...get ready for a lot of sanding and filler primer sanding. 3D printing these days is pretty good, but not as precise as kits like Revell. Boyd provides great instructions and nice quality decals. IMHO water slide decals are the best, herein you’ll find more traditional paper stickers. I wish these kits included the tubing. Great job Boyd Aerospace.
