I've built several of those RTBs (and stashed some that I haven't built). I have currently flyable examples of the Aphelion, Mini Hustler and Mini Aero Dart. I don't think I ever availed myself of the Skyhook II.
I've thought of using a Panavia as a parts donor to make an Aphelion that size....


I was very impressed by the Semroc RTB kits.
Strong ST-10 tubes, the interior insulator tube, thru the wall fins, fin alignment tool included and some classic designs.
