and Scale Series
TOMAHAWK
|
|
TOMAHAWK is a scale replica
of the
famous D-Region Tomahawk sounding rocket. The U.S. Rockets
Tomahawk is the
largest sport scale kit ever produced. It is an excellent
display piece as well
as a fun and easy flier. The large size and moderate power
capability allow
Tomahawk to be flown in athletic size fields with F80-4 or G60-4
motors. Try
H80-4. TOMAHAWK was originally
designed and specified to address
the needs of rocketeers with primarilly model rocket
construction skills but with a need for a rocket which
could
withstand the growing power requirements of MR and HPR
in the F, G, H power. The
two supplementary 24mm mounts
accept
motors D to G as well as interchange mounts for 18mm. These
allow extra smoke effects or dual thrust effects without active
ejection.
This kit uses BALSA fins and thinner airframe tubes than some of
our kits to make TOMAHAWK a superior flyer on even fairly low
power motors!

TOMAHAWK
can be slightly modified to
accept new dual deployment systems and altimiters. The payload
can be deployed on both sides of
the coupler or both sides of the payload tube. This rocket is
recomended for schools, recreation programs and
science work. TOMAHAWK has been successfully tested with
as
high of
power as H90-8 and as high
thrust
as H240-4.
Its very strong and lightweight construction
makes
it fly surprisingly high
compared
to other rocket kit brands. Test it for yourself!
