Jack:
the coaster DynaSoar Centauri was kitted and sold by Coaster Corp. Theres a pici of Jimmy Jackson holding one at NARAM-4 I beleive in the 65 edition of THMR. There are also a pic or two in some of the Am magazines that I have. Will have to look them up. I also have a few Coaster Ads from back in the day showing the Dynasoar for sale. Also at Ye Old Rocket shoppe there is some Coaster info which I am attaching just the photos. These 2 photos were taken at NARAM-4 in August 1962.
As far as the RC Goes this from the 9/62 Am:
Tim Kendall of Phoenix, AZ builds Coaster-powered R/C R/G; not sure if this means he built the Dynasoar with Rc or another scratch RC RG.
the 11/62 Am states;
.Menford Sutton flies Coaster Space Probe on demo flight at Lackland AFB, TX; he also flies Coaster Centauri B/G in a demo flight. This actually occured earlier in the summer of 62 at Lackland AFB in Texas.
