Upcoming Launch Schedule

ROCC 2024-2025 Launch Schedule:

NO launch in May due to the wheat. We hope to fly in June. 

 

 All launches are at the Midland, NC site unless otherwise stated.*

Here are some other launch opportunities in our area:

ICBM & ROSCO, better known as Rocketry South Carolina, flies near Dalzelle, SC., Just NE of Shaw AFB.  More information can be gotten at their site HERE

The Saturn Rocketry Club in Hendersonville is currently switching their launch field. As soon as we know where they land we will post it. Their FB site is HERE

NC Rocketry flies at Bayboro, NC in the northeast part of the state, information is HERE

 Set-up starts at about 9:30, launches commence about 10:30. Field closes about 60 min. before local dusk so we can clean up. Watch the site front page for specifics. Also visit us on FaceBook. You can also check for the FAA NOTAM at https://notams.aim.faa.gov/notamSearch/nsapp.html#/ and using KCLT (Charlotte) as the location. This will give you the starting and ending times for HP flights. 

* If field is available due to crops, etc.

September 18th

DateWednesday, September 15, 2010 at 6:52AM

On September 18th there is another opportunity for ROCC to shine the light on rocketry with another outreach session.

It'll be back at Rural Hill Farms. (map located here)


It'll be late in the afternoon. The Y-Guides have invited us to participate in their weekend of activities by flying a Demo Launch. This time we will not have kids' rockets to prep and fly but we need to keep them entertained and keep things moving. As you can see from the map the site is fairly small, so FAR-101 rules will apply. Rule of thumb is just about any G under 80N average thrust and under 62.5g propellant weight. If you look at the map closely the square site to the north is the corn maze so that's not really available for recovery.


If you're available to help please contact Brad at his usual email address. Discussion is located on ROCC's Rocketry Planet site.
