TARC launch pad
Anyone who competed in or visited the Team America Rocketry Challenge in Virginia will have seen the pads we made for the TARC competition.
Well, now these pads are available to everyone! We are now fabricating and shipping the TARC Concept pads. Based on the proven and sturdy Concept design, the TARC Concept pad will allow TARC teams to fly off the same exact pad they will use in competition.
For non-competing groups who would like a robust pad that is small enough to store in a 24" x 10" x 6" box, this is the answer.
