Launch Configuration Launcher upwind of landing zone Spotters at right angles Spotters will measure angle ground to rocket at maximum height Spotter 1 Spotter 2 Launcher Wind >150ft Safe Down range Video Camera

Model Rocket Safety A.General 1.Only use pre-packaged solid model rocket engines 2.Check engine before use to make sure casing and nozzle are sound and have no defects or cracks 3.Never re-use or re-pack a spent solid rocket engine 4.Don't brew your own fuel 5.Don't modify the nozzle or casing

Model Rocket Safety A.General 6.Use only cardboard tubes and balsa or plastic fins and nose cones for the rocket construction. Don't use any metal parts. B.Preflight 1.Check for loose fins, launch lugs, and shock cords. 2.Check the condition of your recovery system. 3.Check the stability of your rocket with the engine installed.

Model Rocket Safety B.Preflight 4.Be sure that your nose cone does not fit too tightly in the body tube. A nose cone that is too tight can cause the engine to be expelled by the ejection charge with subsequent loss of the rocket. 5.Use electrical launching devices that come with your launch rail and launch pad. Don't use fuses and matches. 6.Safety key is removed when connecting the clips to the wires of the igniters.

Model Rocket Safety B.Preflight 7.No one is "playing with" the launcher while you are at the pad. 8.Pad is securely anchored so that it doesn't tilt or fall over with a large rocket. 9.Place cup over the top of the launch rail when you are at the pad so that you don't accidentally get poked in the eye. 10.Don't fly in high winds or in threatening weather.

Model Rocket Safety B.Preflight 11.Fly your rocket in an open field where there are no obstacles. 12.Never fly near trees, a highway, houses, high tension wires. C.Launch 1.Clear the pad area before launching. 2.Call a countdown so that others in the area are aware that a rocket is being launched.
