About this deal

Features a launch pad platform and when assembled, simply stomp on the foot pump to launch your rocket and watch it soar just like the real thing! Both pieces need to be glued at the same time, so it must be done quickly and it takes a lot of force to get both of the elbows onto the frame tubes. This is an optional step, but adding it prevents users from over-pressurizing the system to a point of failure. You can feel just like a real astronaut with this rocket toy which uses your own stomp power to give it the fuel it needs for takeoff! As winter settles in, ensure your laundry stays fresh and dry with our innovative range of indoor drying products.

For the groups I usually deal with (Elementary children) not having a pressure relief valve is okay because the children are always monitored while using the launchers (mainly for eye safety), and a lot of the times the kids need help from an adult to pump the bike pump anyway. Fins that are not attached straight, or the leading tip of the fin is not secured, will cause the rocket to tumble at high speeds. Since this first introduction, Rick and Keith have continued to innovate in several areas in compressed air rocketry, working to make compressed air rocketry an accessible and safe introduction for kids of all ages to make all kinds of things that fly.

It was suggested by ringworld to include a "parent switch" when using the launchers with younger children.

Your refund will be processed within 14 days of reaching our warehouse using the same method that you paid with. For example, a nosecone that leans slightly to one side may not significantly influence the rocket's performance at 40psi, however at 60psi that nosecone may create an imbalance of friction created by the air rushing by, causing the rocket to turn sharply and tumble to the ground. PSI should be more than enough pressure, since the two inch pipe designed launchers never really need to go above 30 PSI. Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).In fact, this launcher has been used at Maker Faires in both the Bay Area and New York City to launch thousands of rockets over the course of the weekends. It is a plastic air chamber, connected to a launch stand where you push a soft foam rocket down over the outlet. It's great for getting kids interested in STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) Made out of safe foam materials, it's fast and safe to set up and use! We are able to arrange for a collection if that is easier for you, just get in touch and we can help with this. This high performance air-pressure powered rocket launching set will launch a rocket up to 400 into the air without the use of batteries or fuel.

Glue one of the elbows to the Tee and while pushing the pieces firmly together, and make the launch tube parallel with the 13 inch tube. The safety valve is set to 60 PSI max, and is threaded into the schedule 80 nipple, and also held in place from the back side with a retaining nut.Since then, individuals, groups, and Maker Faires all over the world have had a blast introducing rocketry to kids and adults with this launcher. See who can launch theirs the furthest using the air-powered rocket launcher – you might even break one of the two included Guinness World Records challenges. If they aren't parallel, it will be very hard to fit this Tee assembly onto the rest of the launch tube.
