Launches
AHPRA holds launches on the fourth Saturday of the month at Rainbow Valley southwest of Phoenix. There is a standing waiver to 8500 feet with windows available to 11,000 feet. Waiver is from 9:00 AM until 3:30 PM.
We are following the Tripoli Research rules at the launches. This means you must be a Tripoli member to launch. Both commercial and research (new term for experimental) motors may be used. Per the new TRA Research rules certification flights may be made at these launches.
If you are not a TRA member and want to launch you may go to the SSS launch at the same field on other weekends.
All are welcome at the launches, Estes to M's are commonly flown. The club does not set up launch equipment for monthly launches although there is some belonging to members that may be used. If you require any special equipment bring it yourself.
AHPRA/XRAA also sponsors BALLS, also referred to as The Tripoli National Experimental Launch at the Black Rock Desert in Northern Nevada.
If the launch date is near a holiday, a major regional launch or the week of LDRS contact AHPRA for status.
