Capacitive Discharge Reliability

Rocket Launcher by MadLab is a great electronic kit for model rocket enthusiasts. Put an end to unreliable launches.

This launch controller has a capacitor discharge firing system, making it more reliable than launchers that use batteries alone. The rocket launcher can be programmed with a count down between 10 to 90 seconds. Multiple launchers may be daisy chained together for synchronized launches, with 0 to 9 second synchronization delays. Simply connect them together using jack leads (one lead is included with each kit). Any unit can be the master launcher and will control the other units in the chain. Slave launchers wait for the master unit to launch, then wait an additional synchronization delay, launch themselves, and then signal the next unit in the launch chain.

For example, if a long chain is established with all the launch delays set to 2 seconds then a rocket will launch in sequence every two seconds. Any pushbutton on any unit will abort the countdown on all units.

User assembly of electronic kit components and soldering is required.
