Just when you thought it couldn't get any bigger, wilder or stupider ... Introducing the MEGA-GEMINI DC!!

Currently under construction at an undisclosed garage in Tucson Arizona, the Mega-Gemini is our most ambitious project yet. This massive rocket will be powered by 5 M motors - a central M1939, and 4 M1315's. The central tube is 14" in diameter. The side tubes are 10". The fins are 7 feet long. When completed, it will stand 29 feet tall. And in true Upscale Rocketry tradition, it will utilize rear ejection for the main parachutes!

The superstructure for the 14x Gemini DC, by the way the rocket will be about 8 feet taller than this...

Welcome to Upscale Rocketry on the web. We have a passion for taking rocket kits that are challenging at the hobby level and making them work on the high power level. We like to take things that people say are impossible and make them possible. Take a look around and enjoy. The website will be constantly updated so check back and see if anything is new.
