{"product_id":"estes-3-16-two-piece-maxi-launch-rod","title":"Estes 3\/16\" TwoPiece MAXI Launch Rod","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor launching larger rockets, consider using a sturdy and elongated launch rod. If you're aiming for bigger rockets, a more robust launch rod such as this 4.8 mm diameter one designed for heavier rockets and stronger motors may be necessary. This rod connects to the launch pad, allowing your Estes rocket to easily slide over it using the attached launch lugs. Once the rocket is launched, it gains sufficient speed for stable flight before detaching from the rod, typically requiring a speed of around 48 km\/h. This length is ideal for accelerating most Estes rockets to that velocity, particularly suitable for larger rockets powered by C11, D, and E Engines. It also serves well as an alignment aid for model rockets with two launch lugs. Compatible with either the 2215 Porta-Pad II or 2238 Porta-Pad E launch pad models, this versatile tool can enhance the launching experience for various rocket sizes and configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Endeavour Aerospace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50658446639393,"sku":"002244","price":44.97,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/2871\/8625\/files\/3-16-two-piece-maxi-launch-rod_photo_0b041b01-1b49-44e4-a68d-77a6983d6d67.png?v=1733375034","url":"https:\/\/endeavouraerospace.com.au\/products\/estes-3-16-two-piece-maxi-launch-rod","provider":"Endeavour Aerospace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
