Tripod Launch Pads.

Small Size Tripod Launch Pad.

Our small tripod launch pad in red. These have a welded steel central hub with aluminum legs. They have a 29" diameter circular footprint and are the perfect upgrade from a plastic Estes launch pad. Available in red, yellow and blue. $57.99 plus shipping. Blast deflector included. Launch rods are sold separately.

Our small tripod uses our standard aluminum pivoting launch rod holder which accepts up to 3/16" launch rods.

Legs are made from 1/2" diameter 6061 T-6 aluminum and are held in place in their sleeves with 1/4-28 set screws.

Our small tripods come with 4 X 5 inch blast deflectors made from 16 gage (.062) sheet metal. This is about twice as thick as Estes and other similar blast deflectors. They fit over 1/8" and 3/16" launch rods. Clamp on launch rod perches for 1/8" and 3/16" launch rods are included.

 

Medium Size Tripod Launch Pad.

 

Our medium sized tripods are similar to our small size tripod only larger, forming a 34" diameter circular footprint. The legs are made from 1/4" X 1" 6061-T6 aluminum flat stock and bolt onto the central hub with two 1/4 - 20 button head cap bolts per leg. The aluminum launch rod pivot block is slightly larger, accepting up to 1/4" launch rods. They come with a slightly larger 5.5 X 7.5 inch blast deflector made from slightly thicker 14 gage sheet steel. These will handle your mid size, mid power rockets just fine. $99.99 plus shipping. Blast deflector included. Launch rods are sold separately. 

    

5.5 X 7.5 blast deflector is included.

Our medium tripod accepts up to 1/4" launch rods.

 

Rocket rests on perch which clamps onto launch rod. 1/4" perch is included.

Available in red, yellow and blue.
