payload rocket standard size engine V1

Payload Rocket – Standard Size Engine V1 is a modular hobbyist rocket designed for mid-air payload deployment. Standing 182 mm tall with a 22 mm diameter and 77.88 mm fin span, this rocket is compatible with A, B, and C class 18 mm motors. Its clamshell-style nose cone splits open mid-flight to release small payloads such as streamers, sensors, or tiny electronics.

Built for stable flights and easy recovery, this rocket is perfect for beginners testing payloads or hobbyists seeking a reliable platform for repeatable launches. Launch it with an A motor for low-altitude testing, a B motor for higher visibility, or a C motor for maximum altitude and dramatic payload deployment.
