Art Applewhite Rockets: New product announcement

June 15, 2008

Introducing: Helix & Double Helix Kits Adding a new definition to the word:

he·lix –noun, plural hel·i·ces

1. a spiral.
2. Geometry. the curve formed by a straight line drawn on a plane when that plane is wrapped around a cylindrical surface of any kind. Equation: x = a sin?, y = a cos?, z = b ?.
3. Rocketry. the shape of the path followed by the rockets on this page.

All Helix and Double Helix kits are constructed from the highest quality Basswood sheets, Poplar dowels and LOC Precision tubing. Their simple and robust construction means they will continue to fly long after other rockets have been retired. Launch preparation is super simple, just insert the motor and launch! These rockets fly very well even in windy conditions and always land close to the pad. The Double Helix kits use two motors for a unique and exciting, high performance, cluster flight.

Each kit comes with all materials need except glue. They can be built in a single evening using ordinary craft tools and supplies. This kit is recommended for experienced modelers who will appreciate it unusual construction techniques and flight characteristics.
