Backyard Rocketry: Converting Model Rockets Into Explosive Missiles

Unread and unopened! (Hard to list as 'New' when it's 35 years old). 66pp. Has 2 small dots on cover. See photos! More available. Don't settle for those lame model rocket kits available from the local hobby shop. By modifying and adapting the engines and rockets, it's possible to create short- and medium-range surface-to-surface and surface-to-air missiles for some serious fun! Everything you need to know is here, courtesy of the Dangerous Rocket Club: principles of operation, safety precautions, and impro­vised warhead and missile designs, all illustrated with clear plans and schematics. Of course, whenever dealing with explosives, rockets, and improvised modifications, failure to follow industry standards for experimentation and design may result in harm to life and limb. Therefore, this book is for information purposes only. A PALADIN PRESS BOOK.
