As the proud sponsor of this years national convention, FlisKits will be announcing several new kits, the most notable being scale replicas of Robert Goddard's first liquid fueled rocket, Nell as well as a scale replica of his famous L13 rocket (as depicted in Peter Alway's Rockets of the World).  

Further, FlisKits is donating 30 of each of these historic kits to be given away to the first 60 people to register for this exciting event!

And there's more!  FlisKits will also donate range box stickers available to all attendees as well as other gifts and prizes to be announced later on this web site and at the convention itself. 

CMASS, with the help of FlisKits, has made arrangements with Goddard museum curator Mott Lin to make the Goddard exhibit available to all attendees with special tours and more.  To highlight the weekends activities, for those who can stay after on Sunday, CMASS has arranged a launch to take place on the VERY SPOT where Robbert Goddard began humanities reach for space with the launching of the first liquid fueled rocket in Auburn, MA 83 years ago!

If you have ever or have NEVER been to a NARCON, this is THE NARCON to attend!  Fun, exciting, educational, historic, and action packed as no other NARCON has ever been!

See you all in March!

Our expectations are to be able to begin shipment of this new and exciting kit by Wednesday, July 8th

FlisKits will be announcing THREE new kits at NARCON later this month!  All 3 will be officially announced at NARCON in Wethersfield, CT on the weekend of March 20th.  But wait!  All 3 new kits will also be available on our web site BEFORE we head out to NARCON!  You can actually purchase your new kits before the NARCON attendees can!  See below for a sneak preview of these new kits!

The Nantucket Sound Bringing odd-rocs to life, the FlisKits Nantucket Sound is the personification of the "Odd-Roc" in every sense of the word!  Announced as the commemorative kit of the 2009 National Convention (NARCON), the Nantucket Sound is a real flying representation of the rocket that appears in the NARCON 2009 logo!  Featuring 24mm power, parachute recovery and a look all her own, the Nantucket Sound is sure to raise a few eyebrows at your next launch. Retailing for $20.95, the Nantucket Sound is a Skill Level 2.5 kit and will be available for purchase on our site beginning March 20th.  Read more about FlisKits involvement with NARCON by clicking this link!

The Dead Ringer More fun with Micro to the MAXXTM rocketry at FlisKits!.  The Dead Ringer is a wonderful adaptation from the popular Borealis model rocket that we introduced last year.  Featuring laser cut fins and ultra simple assembly, the Dead Ringer looks as cool in the air as it does on your desk!
Retailing for $8.95, the Dead Ringer is a Skill Level 2 kit and will be available for purchase on our site beginning March 20th.   The image at left is of one of the many proto types that were built during its development.  Explore the fun of micro rocketry FlisKits style!

The Tiddlywink Answering the call of our most loyal customers, the Tiddlywink is in response to the NAR hosting a 1/8A HD event at NARAM this coming summer. The Tiddlywink joins her cousin, the Nanite as a serious entry into the world of micro competition.  Featuring a simplified design and quick prep, the Tiddlywink is a reliable and easy to assembly solution to the very complex problem of auto-rotation recovery in micro models.

Offering challenges to both those new to micro rocketry and helicopters, the Tiddlywink will also satisfy the experienced competitor with an elegant bird that performs as well as she looks. The pictures at right show the Tiddlywink in boost mode (far right) and deployed for recovery.  One feature of this design, as can be seen from the photo's, is having the fins attached to the tips of the helicopter blades.  This serves two purposes.  1) added surface area to the blade tips to increase lift and, 2) Removing the fins from the lower hub during recovery so you don't have the fin drag during rotation.  Micro to the MAXXTM gets a little bit better, one kit at a time! Retailing for $9.95, the Tiddlywink is a Skill Level 3 kit and will be available for purchase on our site beginning March 20th.

Cut-Away Model Rocket Motor!

Highlighted during the Vendor Forum at NARAM this past year, the Cut-Away Model Rocket Motor kit is NOW AVAIALBLE!

Featuring simple assembly, laser cut parts and a whole host of related downloads, this educational tool is sure to make your rocketry classes more exciting than ever before!

Some ideas that have come in regarding this fun and exciting tool include buying two and hinge them together so that, when folded up, it looks like a complete motor before opening it up to show the internal structure.  Another idea is to have two with one configured as a Booster Motor to better explain mult-stage operation.

This kit (Skill Level 2) is now available for purchase for just $8.95  Educational and bulk discounts are available.  Ask for details!
