I was going to remove some of the kits from the sale ( especially with iHobby coming up this month), but with the start of the sixth year, what better way to celebrate than to extend the sale another month until October 31.

Up to 25% off.

The response has been great from buyers and vendors alike.

The current sale on select rocket kits will end November 30. Also ending will be the sale on floating head piston launchers and their bases.

The sale will continue for parachute and NOMEX products, for now.

The 25% sale continues for Nylon parachute and NOMEX flame resistant products.

Nylon parachutes are available in red and yellow, from 12" to 48" in size. Six or eight sided.

The NOMEX flame resistant are available in red or black, from 3 x 3" to 24 x 24" in size. The shock cord protectors are available in 36 or 58" long. Both in red or black.

The 5 ft x 5ft ground protector is available in black.
 
How wide of a shock cord can you fit into the protectors?...
A flat cord should have no problem with a width of 1 inch. If you bend it over, I am sure a large one will fit. ( The rough material is 2 1/2" wide, folded over, and then the edges serged - so you lose a little bit in width)

For solid core, then I would say a diameter of 1/2"
 
I cashed in on the Nomex chute protectors and recieved them this week.....GREAT SERVICE !!

Thanks !

As we still have a lower cost supplier for nylon fabric and NOMEX, the sale continues for the month of October. NOMEX and nylon parachutes are still 25% off.

For TARC, the 15" round parachutes are available, but not on sale. Each is measured before shipping to ensure they meet contest standards.
