MINI DH VAMPIRE EDF LASER CUT KIT

A Jet Age Classic — Now a Builder’s DreamRediscover the art of model building with the iconic twin-boom jet that helped define the early years of jet aviation. The Mini DH Vampire EDF Kit is a laser-cut balsa wood scratch-build project, designed for the intermediate and experienced modeller who don’t just fly jets — they craft them.

This isn’t an ARF. It’s not foam. This is true balsa modelling at its finest — precision-engineered for the more advanced club pilots with EDF experience, and ready to deliver a satisfying build and thrilling performance.A profile, balsa, catapult launch glider modelled on the J-10C multi-role jet fighter.

The Mini Vampire is a kit for those who take pride in both the build and the flight. If you’ve flown EDFs before and are ready to take your skills to the next level — both on the bench and at the sticks — this is your jet.
