Product development at Rocket-Tech Industries is on temporary hold while we get relocated. Kits in development include sport-scale versions of the Pershing 1-A and Redstone ballistic missiles, and affordable Vostok, and a "V-2 variant" kit, featuring parts and decals allowing the builder to make one of three different permutations of the V-2 from one kit. Also in our line-up is an inexpensive launch pad capable of handling up to a beefy mid-power bird that self-stores it's launch rods to keep them from getting bent or lost. That pad goes perfectly with our 12V launch control, that features both visual and audible continuity check and heavy duty, garish flourescent green cable running to the launch pad, so you don't have to worry (or at least, the kids running after your rocket won't have to worry) about tripping over hard to see, wimpy girly-wires. Add to that both economy flat nylon chutes, and multi-panel hemispherical chutes for recovery.... since getting back into rocketry and using rip-stop nylon, I won't trust any kits we make to anything else.
Nose cones are turned on our own duplicationg lathe, and we're currently working out the programming for cutting centering rings and fins on our CNC router, or at least we were until we packed it back in it's crate last week for the trip cross country. The attached picture is the same model we're using from the manufacturer's site.
