As a high-power flyer, you'll love this kit because it uses 38mm diameter motors and is built strong and durable.

"How would you take this particular rocket kit, and make it even better?"

That is a powerful question. The answer to that question is basically what Mario Perdue does in this book. He dissects a kit, tears it apart, and then makes it a lot better. From structural improvements to stylistic additions. Just be prepared for a big data-dump of information that you can use on almost any kit that you may be working on. This is a book worthy of being on any rocketeers bookshelf.

Inspired by the Bell X-1, the first supersonic aircraft, this rocket screams off the launch pad on the inexpensive 18mm rocket engines. At 1.64 inches in diameter and 19.5 inches long, this is a good size model that doesn't fade into the background when on the launch rack with those models flown by the fainthearted rocketeers. It stands out, just like you. If you're bold and daring, then this is the right rocket for you!

This hypothetical military rocket is a big at 2.2 inches in diameter and 44.75 inches long. But it is still lightweight and can use the inexpensive 24mm motors like the D12 and E20. When the day is over and you're talking with friends at the local resteraunt, you'll hear everyone congratulating you on the successful flight of your XR-7940. You'll have that sly smile, because deep down, you know that it was actually an easy rocket to build.

Made from components that could have gone into a high-power rocket, the XRAY-1 is a great way to get into bigger rockets. At 2.6 inches in diameter and 42.4 inches long, this twin-engine powered beast is sure to stop hearts when it takes off. You'll be proud to own this menacing looking rocket, as it will turn heads and get you into the game with the big boys.

The Minie-Magg is BIG, but not in the way you may think. It isn't the tallest rocket we have, but it is the fattest! The Minnie-Magg is an electrifying, rugged 5.5" diameter rocket kit that has a lot of build features you'd typically find in beginner-level starter kits. While classified as a true high-power rocket, it is light enough to fly with "G-size" motors, so you don't have to be HPR-certified to build or fly this beast.

The Thundering Skies is a cool 2.2-inch diameter by 44.75 inch long mid-power rocket that utilizes two 24mm motors. It is a easy rocket to build, and that makes it a great first choice if you would like to try your hand at cluster models. The rocket also has a 10-inch long payload bay that is perfect for experiments and for launching electronic altimeters.

This kit looks like a scale U.S. Army, two-stage rocket, but it's not and it's not. It's a fantasy missile that's single-stage. The Army just wishes they had a rocket that's this cool. You can fly this kit with a single 24mm diameter D motor, but the real excitement is with the the more powerful E and F sizes.

Sky Needle is for fliers who want to make a bold statement. With a "taller-than-you" stature, a bright color scheme, and incredible performance, this rocket impresses everyone on the range. Because of its light weiht, this rocket flies great on nearly every type of 24mm diameter motor.

Cesaroni (also known as CTI) is a manufacture of reloadable rocket motors. These motors are made in the standard diameters, so they will fit into your current fleet of rockets without having to do any further modifications.

Are you looking for a heavy-duty pad that can hold a rail and those big high-power rockets? With its all steel construction, and tilting head, this pad was developed specifically for people that want something that makes it easy to load those oversize rockets. It is the last pad you'll ever buy.

A classic rocket kit that makes it easy for you to move up to the larger and more powerful rockets. It builds just like smaller rockets, but everything in it is designed for bigger motors, like the sturdy tube and an indestructible nose cone. You'll find that this is a tried-and-true rocket that flies great and will impress your buddies.

Balsa Nose Blocks, also known as solid bulkheads or tube connectors are used to make payload bays for model rockets. They block off the air flowing through the tube, protecting the delicate payload from the heat of the ejection charge. All you need is a screw eye to attach the shock cord or parachute, and you're ready to go.

It would be a significant set-back to have your parachute come out of your big rocket and then fail to inflate properly. The cause of most deployment failures (and there sure are a lot of them), is that the parachute does not inflate in the correct sequence. Lines get tangled, lines flip over the top of the canopy, and other disasters happen too. A deployment bag is a device to help ensure that the sequence of inflation happens in the correct order. It forces the lines to completely stretch out first, and then the canopy is released so that it can properly inflate. It also minimizes the loads on the suspension lines to prevent tears, and it gives additional protection from the heat of the ejection charges. If you're doing high power rockets, you really need this extra insurance to make your project a success.

This 4-inch (10.2 cm) diameter rocket with a 54mm diameter motor mount is a HPR capable model in every aspect. You'll find that it is the perfect rocket if you'd like to get your Level 1 or even a Level 2 High Power Certification because it is very robust to handle the stresses of high power flight. And it is a simple rocket to build, so you'll be able to get ready for your certification flight in a short amount of time. The name EZ-I65 comes from the fact that the rocket is "easy" (do you get the pun: easy = EZ) to build, and it can take the Aerotech "I65" motor; which is actually certified by Tripoli as a honest-to-goodness "J" motor, which means it is a Level 2 capable rocket kit.

The Quasar One Nuclear Fusion model is a huge kit for advanced fliers who want a quick and simple build to hone their clustering skills. You can fly this kit with black powder C and D motors, but the real excitement is in the 24mm composite motors. It is like Warp Speed!

The Orion Star luxury liner is a futuristic craft that features pods on the tips of the fins. It is a big rocket that uses the 24mm diameter mid-power engines from the C11-3 to the Aerotech F32-8T. You'll love how straight and true this sleek craft flies!

This is a new 24mm diameter motor that is recommened for any rocket kit that takes the Estes D12 motor. The E20 has the same casing length, so you don't have to do any modifications to your rockets. Produces a huge white flame when it takes off, which makes your rocket that much more impressive.

The Skylab Saturn V is a great desktop model that you'll be proud to display. It packs a lot of surface detail that attract eyeballs of your friends like a magnet. They'll marvel at how realistic this rocket looks. And just wait until they see it fly...

For teachers that are on a tight budget, this is a rocket kit you might consider. It is small and easy, and features laser-cut balsa fins, a plastic nose cone, and simple streamer recovery. While it isn't big, it will put a big smile on the faces of your students.

SkyAngle parachutes were designed and constructed specifically to handle the extra stress of high power rockets. Because of the extra weight of the bigger rockets, they have more than their share of parachute malfunctions. The SkyAngle parachutes are more durable, and bring your big rockets down slower.

Looking for an easy-to-build rocket for your class of young rocketeers? The Minuteman goes together in minutes, and because it uses a pre-molded plastic fin unit, it flies straight and true on every launch. We rate this as one of the easiest models to build that we sell.

Here is a highly detailed sport scale model of NASA's next big-payload launch vehicle, the Ares V. The kit features beautifully detailed and pre-printed body wraps. There is no painting necessary—just cut out the wraps and use spray adhesive to apply them to the tube surface. It is a fun rocket that looks as good as it flies.

These engine retainers hold reloadable rocket motors securely in the model so they can't be kicked out by a strong ejection charge. These are much less expensive than other engine retainers, and can be retrofitted onto rockets that are already constructed and ready to fly. They also work great on flat-bottom rockets where the engine tube is flush with the centering ring.

These are high power nose cones that fit both the LOC kraft-paper tubes, as well as the Blue Tubes. The nose cones are blow-molded out of Polyproplyene plastic, which makes them hollow, and yet very durable so they'll take the abuse of any high power motor you care to put behind them.

These tubes from LOC Precision are perfect if you are just getting started in high power rocketry and are on a budget. Made from paper, they are easy to cut, sand, glue, and paint. They will allow you to experiment with your own designs and construction techniques without putting you in debt.

Want to make your own long rockets from the LOC Precision body tubes? You'll need a tube coupler to splice the tubes together and join them to make a long tube. These are from ordinary kraft paper, so they are easy to work with and are a lot cheaper than couplers from exotic materials.

The Nemsar is a long rocket, but is actually easy to build (Skill Level 2). It is light enough to fly on C-size motors, but we put in a big 24mm engine mount so you could be amazed at how well it flies on the big D-size motors. The rocket has all the quality you expect from a kit by Apogee Components. Don't let your friends snatch them all up before you get one. Order it today!

This semi-scale rocket of NASA's MLAS is unique among rocket kits. While it is short and squat, it packs a lot of high-tech engineering. From its styrofoam nose cone to the centering ring with lightening holes and the very thin-wall body tubes, you'll be amazed by all the thought that went into the design of this rocket. Get one to complete your collection of NASA rockets!

Rail Buttons are used in place of launch lugs on larger rockets. The reason is that big rockets need a stiffer launcher so they don't sway around in breezy conditions. A launch rail is much stiffer than a circular rod, and therefore are used on big rockets so they launch safely and higher into the sky.

The Pemberton Team of Mad Scientists has taken the three fins and a nose cone concept to its farthest extreme with the result being the 3FNC, literally a nose cone with fins. This sleek, sliver beauty is everything a rocket should be: short, stubby, stylish, and light weight with rakishly swept fins tipped with cool retro, fin-tip pods.

Are you a raving fan of the 1951 movie "When World's Collide"? The cool spaceship from that movie is now available in a beautiful mid-power model rocket kit. Even if you know nothing of the movie, this is a great rocket that is sure to up your status at the next launch you go to.

The Spike utilizes "stick fins" that produce drag instead of lift, which then helps stabilize the trajectory of the rocket. This is very unique among rockets and is something you won't see very often. This little rocket is also super-easy to put together, and is great for kids. It comes with a long shiny streamer so that you can find the rocket after its launch.

The Sparrow is a very simple boost glider that you'll love to see fly. It utilizes an efficient flying wing shape that lowers the drag and allows it to fly higher and faster than most other gliders. When it kicks out the engine to start its glide, you'll see a great display of Newton's Third Law of Motion (For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction).

This is a semi-scale rendition of the Air Force's target drone. It features small tip-fins on the ends of the main fins. This makes the rocket stable, and also much cooler-looking than most designs in your fleet.

The F-32 Avenger is a futuristic space fighter designed to protect our planet from evil aliens. It is amazing how a few simple parts can be arranged in a way that really catches your eye. The simulated engine pods actually help to stablize the rocket, so it actually flies straight and true!

This swoopy-looking designs has to be inspire by the movie "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea." It has that industrial-look to it that is a classic indicator of the early industrial age. Captain Nemo would be proud to pilot this ship into the sea of space. Would you be willing to join him on a new voyage?

This is a classic 2-stage model rocket. It is recommended for people that want to try out multi-stage rockets and have a modest budget to work with. It is a straight-forward design to work with, and since it is light, the performance of this rocket will impress everyone at your next launch.

Direct from Germany. A cool scale model of the Ariane rocket flown by the European Space Agency. Supplies of this kit are limited.

This rocket is an example of what a deep-space transport will look like when we're ready to leave this planet for a new home. Uses a unique ring-tail arrangement for the fins, and four transitions. A worthy project for any modeler that loves rocketry.

A short and stubby rocket never looked so cute as the Penguin rocket kit. It features durable plywood centering rings, and flies on those big 24mm diameter motors. Did we mention how cute it is?

The BIG version of the famous space ship from the Sci-Fi serials of the 1950's. The Bucky Jones is a cool design that will excite your imagination to an elevated plane of existence. This version flies on 29mm F and G size rocket motors. Check it out today.

From his bulbous nose to his flashy fins and multiple exhaust tubes, Little Bucky Jones is Super Retro Sci-Fi through and through. Like all spaceships from that era, he is gaudy, stylish, sleek and silly enough to give aerospace engineers apoplectic fits.

If you like old Sci-Fi movies from the 1950's, you're going to love this retro design model rocket. It is one of our favorites for its stylistic appeal. A great mid-power rocket on 29mm diameter motors.

In real life, the Army's LITTLE JOHN was a free flight artillery rocket designed to deliver the explosive power of heavy artillery. It could carry either nuclear or conventional warheads. This semi-scale replica will be a nice work-horse rocket in your fleet. Designed to take 38mm motors, it is lightweight enough to accept 29mm motors for small fields.

This kit is similar to the Fat Boy rocket, but with attitude. Having both regular and ring fins, it will intimidate the competition. And with the right motor, this rocket will scream off the pad at 310 MPH!

Here's a complex rocket that will have everyone asking you: "Does that thing really fly?" Takes two 18mm diameter motors, and produces an awesome column of smoke at lift-off.

Bring your heavy streamer-recovery rockets down slower with this 10-inch wide streamer material. Made from 0.002 inch thick plastic with a highly reflective aluminized coating. It sparkles in the sunlight so that you can see it easier in the air and on the ground. Specifically designed to give TARC contestants a edge in the competition.

The Krãken sports some unique shaped tube fins. That gives it an ominous look that will draw people toward it like a magnet. Have some towels ready... They'll be drooling all over this one.

The King Krãken (pronounced krã'-kin), named for the sinister creature of ancient sea lore, is a one-of-a-kind sport flier featuring Pemberton's unique, sculpted tube-fin design. The canted leading edge tube fins have been reported to be 30% more stable than square cut tube fins. She is as much a fantastic flying machine as she is a work of art! This version is more than twice as big as the one listed above.

Get another 5% increase in altitude just by launching from a piston launcher! A piston launcher converts the hot exhaust gases from the rocket engine into high-pressure that kicks the rocket into the air at a faster velocity. This recycling of the exhaust gases is cool, and it gives your rocket a higher flight.

These payload bays from Always Ready Rocketry fit most of the standard size Blue Tube, as well as tubes from LOC Precision. They are designed to hold the avionics or electronics that control the deployment of the parachutes in the rockets. It is a complete kit, all you have to do is supply the electronic payload to controll when the ejection charges fire.
