WSR is the NAR - Wright Stuff Rocketeers is Section 703 of the National Association of Rocketry, the sport rocketry hobby’s foremost national organization. Based in Dayton, we serve the greater southwestern Ohio region. We are a well-equipped section, with all the ground support equipment like launch systems, pads, rods and rails, and even PA equipment for on-the-field communications. And, we fly

LOST AND FOUND

These two nose cones were found on the field at last Sunday’s launch. One is a Custom Rockets BT-50 elliptical, with a parachute and long shroud lines connecting to a snap swivel. The other is a blue Estes BT-50 semi-conical like that used on the Crossfire SSX.

They will be at eRockets for you to claim.

JUNE 13 LAUNCH - BACK ON AND MOVED

"If you don't like it, move."

This Saturday's launch is BACK ON and has been moved to Springfield at Eagle City Road Park. Still a Class 1 launch (3.3 pound / G impulse limit) from 11am to 5pm. I will not be there (I'll be at the Dayton Air Show), but you know who will be? Merlin Missiles (AKA Lee)! And you like him better anyway! But of course that means those of you who are going will need to divvy up the gear and get it to the field and back. Weather looks darn near perfect. Remember to stay hydrated and paint yourselves with sunscreen.

Special Thanks to Greg for pulling this together.
