Description
This 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) diameter launch rod is ideal for most standard engine powered rockets. It attaches to the launch pad then you can align the launch lugs on your Estes rocket to the launch rod and slide it down. As the rocket launches, it quickly gains enough speed to fly with stability, thanks to the launch rod, and then flies into the air.
Fits the 2215 Porta-Pad II
Also works great when used as an alignment tool on model rockets that require two launch lugs.
Rocket Master –
Excellent Launch Rod
If you find that your current launch rod is warping in any way you may want to replace the rod to avoid loosing your rocket all together. Better Safe than sorry!
MJA RocketWorks –
Estes makes great launch rods
These rods guarantee that my rockets fly straight. It’s easy to use and put a rocket on it for display. That safety cap is a really good idea!!
