Supplies in Miami

[Dbarrm]

Morning all. Does anyone know of a good place in the Miami area to get rocket supplies. Ive been to michaels, wal mart and a few little hobby stores but none have a very large selection. I was surpirsed with what wal mart did carry and I got a few little rockets for the kids. What I am looking for is motors. No one seems to cary a good range of them.

Depending on the size you want (Estes low power, or Aerotech mid/high power) the best places seem to be online. Some sites that come to mind are Great Lakes Hobbies , Hobby Linc , and Magnum Rockets. These places should be able to meet your needs.

Dan, You might try Hobby Superstore in Plantation (University Dr.). I travel all over Florida and they have the best selection of Estes motors and kits. I haven't found anything further South as all the shops seem to only specialize in RC cars.

As as for mid to high power I strongly recommend supporting your vendor at local launches (and avoiding shipping charges). Dennis at New Horizons Hobbies has a huge selection, is extremely helpful and attends all West Palm Beach Tripoli launches.

As a matter of fact we have a launch this Saturday 29th. Please drive up and join us! Lots of low to high power flights on a 600 acre sod farm, beautiful!

Feel free to contact me for further details or look at our web site (follow links from Tripoli site). - Peter
