I was searching thru old issues of RCM last nite for other information and
came across reviews of the Estes Astro Blaster and also the Phoenix, which
is some other companies (Aero-Tech???) rocket glider. The Phoenix is a glider with conventional design (i.e., horizontal stab, rudder) and I think the price for a complete system (included launcher, etc) was $189.
If you are interested I will get the specific references for you.
