NOTICE
Due to changes necessitated by the city of Palm Bay we are
forced to make the following the new procedures for Certifying
level 1 and high-power flying.
Level 1 certification flights;
Certifying level 1 candidates are required to pre-register prior
to the launch day.
We have 10 slots available and they will be assigned in order of
readiness.
Upon arriving at the launch, you are to check in with the LCO
with your rocket and flight card filled out in hand and ready to
fly. At that point you will be assigned a round. You must be
ready in case we decide to move you to an earlier round.
New launch ready procedures;
You will sign up on the board for a specific pad and round. We
will announce pads are open and you have 5 minutes to be at your
pad. If not at your pad by 5 minutes it will be forfeited to
someone who is standby.
At 6 minutes pads are closed awaiting final set up of the round.
We will start launching at approximately 20 minutes from the
time the pads were opened.
No.... going out to a pad to start setting up after 6-minute
mark
No sparky motors.
No more than 3 people total at a pad.
No drones during a launch cycle.
No radios or music during a launch cycle so everyone can hear
the LCO
2026 changes;
Effective with the January 2026 launch all fliers must be a
member in good standing.
Each month in addition to being a member, you must pay a $5
flight fee. This is to offset the cost of having the fire
department onsite.
