Does the helicat model rocket come with a maxi launch rod and if not can i use the launch rod that comes with it to launch other rockets that need maxi a launch rod?

Yes, you can use other launch rods. They are all basically the same.

What does the recovery system do on a model rocket?
It basically allows you to reuse your rocket. Common recovery systems are a parachute or a streamer, both of which pop out of part of the rocket (the nose, usually) when it's in the air. The parachute (usually used with slightly larger rockets) or the streamer (generally found on smaller rockets) then catches the wind/air as the rocket comes down, allowing it to land without damage.
How will the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket promote space travel?
The main way SpaceX plans to promote travel is by reducing cost. The cheaper rockets are, the more can be launched. Already SpaceX has drastically reduced launch costs by making nearly all its own rocket components, and if the testing of their first-stage rockets that can land and be refueled and reused goes well, it will ultimately eliminate the need to build a new first stage for every launch. The company plans to one day make their entire rocket reusable, meaning the only cost to launching it would be the cost of fuel, which comes out to about $200,000. Compared to the $50M-100M cost of many launches, this would theoretically mean humankind would be able to launch at least 100 times more rockets into space for the same price. This would pave the way for establishing new satellite systems, constructing space stations for research or tourism, and even colonizing the Moon or Mars.
How do pop bottle rockets work?
There is water in the bottle and the air gets compressed to launch the bottle into the air, and when it reaches apegy, the parachute comes out and lands the bottle safely.
How do astronauts leave the earth?
astronauts leave earth by the liftoff of the space shuttle and rockets, it is called force of the rocket. The engine starts and liquid fuel comes out of the rocket and pushes them up.
Why the rocket nose cone becomes very hot when it re-enters the atmosphere?
Due to the friction when the rocket re-enters atmosphere .the hotness comes because the work is done again frictional forceThis does not happen on model rockets,of course.
What is the best gas for rockets?
What powers a rocket? The immediate answer that comes to mind is of course: rocket fuel. The kind of rocket fuel came with the invention of the rocket by the Chinese in the 13th century. They had previously previously discovered an explosive compound called gunpowder. As they continued to find both military and commercial uses for it, they eventually came up with a variant of the original formula that became the first rocket fuel.
Why the rocket is called sounding rocket?
The word sounding comes from the nautical term meaning 'to measure'. We use sounding rockets to perform measurements and experiments in space. Sounding rockets do not enter orbit, but can go very high into space.
What effect will the wind have on the way a rocket is launched?
Wind is a major factor when it comes to launching model rockets. Wind can cause your rocket to go up at an angle or tip over. Wind also effects the recovery/descent process. Wind can blow your rocket very far after the recovery system is deployed (if its a parachute. To reduce the distance of gliding, I'd recommend that you cut a hole in the middle of the parachute.
What comes in kryptos rocket?
Everything for a dog.
Where does the crawler transporter go during a space shuttle launch?
It returns to the Vehicle Assembly Building, and after launch it comes back to retrieve the Mobile Launch Platform.
Why can a rocket fly into space?
it can fly because the fire that comes out of the back of the rocket is its thrust.So when the fire comes out the back it causes the rocket to thrust forward.Remember the fire comes out with a lot of force thats why the rocket is able to fly because of the thrust. The body of the rocket is a device that can stay in space and float in there which allows the rocket to stay in space. The fire thrusts the rocket up but only to get out of earths atmosphere because earth has gravity space doesn't. In space the rocket does the rest of the work which is floating in a place without gravity. hope this helped!
Why do bottle rockets have water in them in addition to the compressed air?
the water gives the compressed air something to push against.it also moderates the speed of the air/water mixture so that is comes out at a controlled rate. if you didn't have water or some other non compressible liquid substance in the rocket, the air would rush out too fast and the rocket would not go anywhere.
