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.

ROCC 2023-24 season set to open November 18th/19th.

DateSunday, November 5, 2023 at 4:02PM

I heard from Ralph yesterday (11/4) about the farm status, according to Kip the corn and soy beans are cut and off the field so we are cleared for a launch window on November 18th & 19th. 

Field setup should start at 9, flying should start by 10 and field should close about 4 to close up before sunset. 

Ken Allen from Performance Hobbies is scheduled to be with us on Saturday the 18th. 

Visitors are always welcome, but remember this is a working farm with machines and barns and equipment, so if you have small children please keep track of them. There's lots they can get into if you're not alert. 

Once we get a bit closer and the weather is a bit more predictable we'll publish an update on that with winds and temps. 

Fingers crossed!!
