Member Benefits

The MSRS NAR section has invested a substantial amount of money to obtain launch equipment to operate safe and fun monthly launches.  Now, the section is working to accumulate some personal use equipment that the members can use to lower the cost of flying their personal rockets particularly as they advance to bigger and more expensive rockets.  We are hoping that this equipment will provide a more affordable path for rocketeers working to move into Class 2 models.  Using RMS hardware can reduce the flight cost as much as 25%.  Below is a table of the section equipment available for personal use by MSRS Section Members in Good Standing.  See rules below.
