The rocket powered Zagi flying wing was a conversion done by George Gassaway and flown on composite F12 and G13 motors from the Aerotech Phoenix. I don't think Zagi ever offered the kit as a rocket boosted glider. The Zagi is a foam wing. I've got a Zagi, but it's electric powered.

There was a smaller wing called the Klingberg Flying Wing that was designed for Estes motors. This wing was "stick built" using balsa ribs, spars, etc. I have one still in the box.

North Coast Rocketry had a glider that resembled the Space Shuttle, also made of foam. I have one that I found next to free, but I've never gotten around to building it.

The Aerotech Phoenix mentioned above was more or less a normal winged glider powered by a special 32mm reloadable motor.
