Bigfoot Water Rocket Launchers, "Quality is our Priority."
- PRECISE control of the launch variables among multiple rockets and multiple competitors.
- EXACT control of water fill level.
- ACCURATE control of air pressure level.
- NO PRIOR FILLING of water inside rocket bottle needed before mounting on launcher. [If desired, you can fill rocket bottle first and then mount onto internal launch tube.]
- WATER FILLING EASE by turning a valve handle.
- EASE OF ADJUSTMENT of water levels and air levels by turning a valve handle. Features:
- SAFE to use
- Controls straight water rocket trajectory !!!!!!
- Fits any common soft drink bottle up to 2 liters within normal sizes.
- Air connection with conventional Schrader tire valve fits all standard air pumps and compressors. All the parts thread together easily. O Rings and grooved reciprocating PVC components provide positive seal when connecting the Trigger to the Tripod Leg Assembly Base Double O Rings seal Water Rockets on the Trigger.
- Two each easy pull cantilever pin triggers with attached 12 foot long pull strings in two colors. The red string with cantilever trigger pin is for the person launching the rocket. The yellow string with centilever pin is for a safety moderator. On a count down from 3-2-1-Fire, the safety moderator pulls his/her pin at count of 1. This prevents launch from occuring too soon.
- Trigger housing has 6 launch holes for the cantilever pull pins. The safety moderator and the person launching the rocket can pick any combinations of the hole patterns for safety and convenience. Holes at located in 60 degree increments. For example, on an analog clock, that would be 2 o'clock, 4 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 8 o'clock, 10 o'clock, and 12 o'clock positions.
- Color-coded parts make easy identification for assembly of the 3 legs.
- Holds 100 psi pressure without leaking
- Gives maximum thrust for blast off
- Achieves 500 + foot apogees with 2 liter bottles
- Launches from vertical to 45 degree angles to horizontal for race cars (need extra legs).
- Self-powered trigger is powered by #32 rubber bands, available at any office supply. However we include custom EPDM rubber bands made specifically for this launcher, which are very strong and long lasting material.
- Launcher is stable: won't tip over!
- Provides practice in preparation for Science Olympiad
- LARGE Pressure gauge on the launcher reads clearly 0 - 100 psi
- Good for use on hard or soft ground surfaces. The new easy pull cantilever trigger pin design prevents launcher from tipping over on hard surfaces when using only the rubber feet (not using blue steel ground stakes).
- Works with parachutes systems
- Allows low profile fin assemblies to be mounted far below bottle neck of "booster"
- Possible to lower the water level while water is under pressure
- Quick & Easy launch abort and de-pressuring with new diverting valve.
- Diverting valve can be used as a water source to fill nose cones with water.
- Portable (good for travel and storage)
- Economical price for all the parts and manufacturing.
- Reliable and long lasting
