Sirius Rocketry Releases New Deimos Kit

NEENAH, WisconsinUSA -

Sirius Rocketry is proud to announce the immediate availability of its latest kit, the Deimos – Mars Exploration Vehicle.

The new Deimos is the latest addition to the Sirius Rocketry line of futuristic mid-power model rocket kits. The Deimos is a beautiful model of a futuristic exploration craft. The skill level 2 kit features multiple balsa nose and pod cones, a simulated rocket nozzle, swept-back-forward fins, rugged heavy-wall body tube and realistic full-color waterslide decals.

With its large size (almost three feet tall) the Deimos is a great demonstration rocket, featuring slow liftoffs and graceful flights. With a heavy-wall 24mm motor mount, the Deimos will accommodate a number of larger 24mm motors and reloads from D to F impulse. The large 24" parachute will bring the Deimos gently down to earth again.


The Deimos has many features that make it an easy kit to build and a fun one to fly:

- Heavy-wall body and motor tubes that stand up to higher impulse flights.
- Precision laser-cut hard balsa fins and plywood centering rings.
- Simulated rocket nozzle.
- Two full-color decal sheets make this another Sirius Rocketry signature kit and a stunning model.
- Durable Kevlar(tm) shock cord mount and generous elastic shock cord to soften the stress of deployment.
- 24" parachute for gentle recovery.
- A detailed 12-page instruction manual that Sirius Rocketry is famous for, which includes clear step-by-step illustrations as well as trademark Sirius Rocketry suggestions and tips that help you make the most of your build.

The Deimos is available now at an introductory price of $54.95 at www.siriusrocketry.com.

Did I hear you were possibly going to produce a Saturn I along the same scale as your Saturn V?

Did I hear you were possibly going to produce a Saturn I along the same scale as your Saturn V?

That is something that has been under development for quite some time, and those rumors have substance. If/when it is done, it will be to the same exacting standards as the Saturn V, as I am a stickler for those things. But I am not sure the demand will be there to justify it. I could be wrong. But, suffice it to say that when I have the free time, I do work on that project. Folks can always encourage projects like this by supporting the items we already have out, that always helps! After all, I prioritize the projects that will help us keep going strong. I want to be here still doing this in another 11 years and beyond!
