your key to the Space Age! Whether you are just getting into the hobby or have been in it all your life, Semroc offers something for everyone.

Thousands of model rocket enthusiasts have flown kits and engines from Semroc since 1968. We look forward to flying with you.

 

Semroc has released four new kits for the winter build season. The Deci-Scale™ Aerobee 300™ is a 1/10 scale of the popular sounding rocket designed by Aerojet General, also called the "Spaerobee". Adding a Sparrow upper stage to the Aerobee-Hi (Aerobee 150), altitude and speed records were broken. This model is the starting point for your recreation of any of the several launches of this popular design. It is a sport scale so it does not have the booster that was normally used to launch the original. This model is 24mm engine ready for C11's and D12's. It is almost 3 feet tall so it will be a great addition to your Deci-Scale™ family. It is also an upscale of the popular K-17 Aerobee 300 produced by Estes in the early days.

The Deci-Scale™ WAC Corporal™ is a 1/10 scale of the first two-stage liquid fueled rocket. This model is the starting point for your recreation of any of the several launches of this popular design. It is a sport scale so it does not have the booster that was normally used to launch the original.

The Retro-Repro™ Cherokee-D™ is released by popular demand for an early Gene Street design. One of the first D powered designs, it launched a new generation in model rocketry.

The popular Retro-Repro™ Ranger™ is based on a design by Vern Estes from 1962 of the first commercially available cluster kit. The design spawned many other versions over the years.

Semroc has released five new kits for NARAM-53. The Retro-Repro™ Moon Glo™ is released in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Rocket Development Corporation by Irv Wait in Utah in 1961. It was their first model rocket kit and like many of Irv's other creations and inventions, broke the mold for how model rocketry was supposed to be. The larger-than-life fins and zany nose cone made the Moon Glo a popular kit at RDC and requests for its recreation have been heard at Semroc.

The popular Retro-Repro™ Shrike™ is based on a design by John Simmance that has been long in its careful recreation at Semroc. It is the second most requested kit on our web site and is highly popular when one becomes available on eBay. Featuring two-stage design with several debossed wraps, the Shrike is both a builder's model and a great performer. It has a clear payload section, laser-cut fins and precision manufactured balsa nose cone and coupler. Using more widely available booster engines, the Shrike will be a great addition to your two-stage models.

The Deci-Scale™ Aerobee 150™ is a 1/10 scale of the popular sounding rocket designed by Aerojet General. The line began as the Aerobee-Hi and later was renamed to the Aerobee 150. This model is the starting point for your recreation of any of the over half million launches of this popular design. It is a sport scale so it does not have the booster that was normally to launch the original. This model is 24mm engine ready for C11's and D12's. It is 2 1/2 feet tall so it will be a great addition to your Deci-Scale™ family.

The 1/3 scale Arcas™ is a recreation of an Atlantic Research sounding rocket that is smaller than our SLS Arcas. It uses standard engines but keeps the scale boat tail and fins for a highly detailed model. At almost 2 1/2 feet tall, the Arcas will be one of your most admired models.

The Baby Orion™ is a half scale version of the Centuri Orion™. It uses standard mini-engines when you want to fly in smaller fields. Seven balsa nose cones helps preserve the look and feel of its larger brother. It is small and almost too pretty to fly, but you won't be able to resist.

 

Semroc is announcing two new kits for the late spring build season. Since we had sold so many parts for the Goblin™, we decided to release it as a kit. It is based on an early design by Wayne Kellner that was originally shipped as a bonus kit and later released as a very popular kit for the new D-power engine. We have added it to the Magnum Series so it flies on a D, but you can use the included 18mm adapter to fly less powerful engines on smaller fields. Our Retro-Repro™ Goblin™ includes a balsa nose cone with laser-cut fins. It also includes the long 90" streamer as the original for wind-cheating recovery.

The PSC Infinity™ celebrates the 25th anniversary of the Pittsburgh Space Command, Section #473 of the National Association of Rocketry. Formed in 1986 by Club Founder Art Nestor, PSC has established a rich tradition over the years, introducing hundreds of enthusiasts to the exciting hobby of model rocketry. This model was conceived and designed by Club member Mike Hardobey, engineered by fellow Club member John Brohm and produced by Semroc. Due to the number of requests for this unique design, Semroc has produced a small number for the public to help PSC celebrate their 25th. It is also unique in that it is a two stage design with a dual 18mm cluster in each stage, providing for more challenge than average kits provide.

 

Semroc has released four new kits for the winter build season. The most awaited Trident™ is based on an early design by Gene Street that has been in development for almost two years. It was shipped for a few months as a Semroc xKit, but the tube slotting and alignment produced less than desirable results for many modelers. Our Retro-Repro™ Trident™ takes advantage of our new laser-cut tube slotting process that allows us to do the tedious part of the assembly for you. Adding two precision laser-cut fiber alignment guides allows the assembly of most of the parts without glue until everything is aligned just right. Larger slots allow for the use of modern ejection charges. Nine precision cut balsa nose cones and a waterslide decal make the Trident™ a great addition to your futuristic classics collection.

The Retro-Repro™ Scrambler™ is inspired by an early design by Bill Simon. It was one of the earliest production cluster egg payload designs.  Featuring all balsa parts and a clear payload section, the Scrambler™ has been one of the most-requested classic designs.

Two more Ready-to-Build kits are also included in this release. The classic Coaster Company design from 1959 was the inspiration for the Lil' Centauri™. The original design was published as a set of plans for a radio controlled boost glider. The Lil' Centauri™ is a 1/2 scale model of the original. It uses parachute recovery since the glide capabilities were not proven. One of the most popular Centuri designs was the Centurion. The Mini Centurion™ is a 63% scale model of the original very popular Centuri Engineering design from the 1970's and also uses RTB technology.
