XP-RAPTOR™

A Lean Mean Flying Machine

The XP-RAPTOR™ is the first in a new family of original rocket kit designs offered by QModeling. Building on the success of Retro MEGA Series, QModeling has established a new line of original top quality sports class model rocket kits titled the XP Series. The XP-RAPTOR was designed to leverage QModeling unique manufacturing processes to produce a sleek and unique original kit. Resembling a Nike-Ajax the XP-RAPTOR is a based on a BT-60 size main body tube tapering to a BT-55 parachute compartment. The XP-RAPTOR is over 37 inches tall. Its slender profile and light construction weight of approximately 5.0 ounces produces spectacular high flights.

QModeling's XP-RAPTOR like all QModeling kits is designed around 24mm rocket motors. The RAPTOR can fly on a wide range of 24mm engines from a C11-3 to a F21-8W, as well as Reloadables. Combined with QModeling's high quality laser cut parts and renowned easy step-by-step instructions your own XP-RAPTOR will be going space bound in no time.

QModeling continues to break the deployment barrier in the XP Series by eliminating the crinkling sound of Mylar and the need for wadding lookouts! With the help of Top Flight Recovery, QModeling has created a new high quality recovery system for all their XP Series kits. The XP-RAPTOR comes with an 18” Octagon, Thin Mil, Ripstop Nylon Parachute with sewn in 24” Nylon shroud lines, Nomex 5” x 5” Heat Shield Parachute Protector, 9’ Kevlar Shock Cord, and a Snap Swivel.

Coming up with innovated solutions to common problems is a goal of QModeling. Their new Shock Cord Bumper designed to help eliminate "Zippering" of body tubes from the shock cord during recovery ejection is a great example. The soft rubber Shock Cord Bumper is another sign of QModeling's commitment to quality, listening to customers, and overall goal of offering the best sports class model rockets on the market.
