Default 1/8 Scale Redstone/ With Launch Pad

Photos of the Launch Pad, the launch rod and rocket with launch rod installed.

Feet of Pad are 2" angle Iron 3/16" thick. Pad itself is 1/4" plate.

Launch rod mounts in floor stands, can use up to 10ft long 3/4" or 1/2" metal conduit for the rods.

6ft long rod in rocket in these photos.

Pad turnbuckle will give 20 degree of angle if needed. Measured with a gauge we have at work.

Work scale designed for weighing welding rod, so easy to weigh this without worry for the digital scale. Weighs 22.5lbs.

Pad photos show turnbuckle opened and closed.
