Launch Supplies Needed

To launch your rocket you will need the following supplies:

• A model rocket launching system

• Flame resistant recovery wadding

• Recommended Rocket Engines: C11-3, D12-5

Rocket Preflight

A. Crumple and insert 5 sheets of recovery wadding into the body tube.

B. Fold the parachute and insert it into the tube with the shock cord.

C. Insert the rocket motor into the aft end of the rocket.

D. Insert and secure the engine igniter as directed on the package the engines came with.

Countdown and Launch Procedure

Fly your rocket on a large field that isn't near any power lines, trees, or low flying aircraft; The larger the field, the

greater your chances of recovering your rocket. The launch area around the pad must be free of dry weeds and brown

grass. Launch only during calm weather with very little or no wind and good visibility.

10. Remove the safety key from the launch controller.

9. Slide the launch lugs over the launch rod to place the rocket on the pad. The rocket should slide freely over the rod.

8. Attach the micro-clips to the igniter. The clips must not touch each other or the metal blast deflector.

7. Stand back from your rocket as far as the launch wire allows (at least 5 meters - 15 feet).

6. Insert the safety key to arm the launch system. The light (or buzzer) on the controller should come on.

Give a loud countdown 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... LAUNCH!

Push and hold the button until the engine ignites. Then remove the safety key and place the safety cap on the launch

rod.

Misfire Procedure

Occasionally the igniter will burn, but the motor will fail to ignite. If this happens, the cause is that the pyrogen on the

igniter was not in contact with the engines propellant. When an ignition failure occurs, remove the safety key from the

launch controller and wait 60 seconds before approaching the rocket. Remove the old igniter from the engine and install a

new one. Make sure that the igniter is insert fully into the engine and touches the propellant. Secure the igniter as directed

on the engine package and repeat the countdown and launch procedure.

Always follow the NAR* Model Rocket Safety Code when launching model rockets.
