Launch Types

There's a lot more to a good launch than just pushing a button. Because of the diverse nature and interests of the members of UROC we hold several different types of launches throughout the year. So whether you are interested in high power, experimental, model, scale, UROC has a launch for you.

These launches are held several times throughout the year and are exclusively for Tripoli Level 2 and above members. These launches are held to allow special projects, experimental motors and other flights that would not be allowed at a sport launch.  Please note that you MUST be a Tripoli member with a certification of level 2 or above to participate in these launches.

UPDATE: Tripoli has recently published an FAQ that should answer most questions about Tripoli Research Launches.
