OUR 300th VIDEO! See Coupon Code below for a discount on your order to help us celebrate this milestone. This is only for subscribers like you! This video shows our new tool for selecting rocket motors for any kit that you might design. In the past, you'd have to simulate rocket flights one at a time in RockSim, and then interpret the results yourself on whether or not they would be good motor choices. For people that don't know a lot about rocketry, this could be a daunting task. So we made it much simpler by having the software make the choice for you. Now all you have to do is click one button, then confirm the launch conditions for the flights, and RockSim 10 will simulate all the possible motor combinations that would fit into the rocket. In a few seconds, you'll have a list of motors that would give you a safe flight based on the launch conditions you choose.
NOTE: RockSim 10 will be released by the end of March. As a subscriber to this newsletter, you'll get the first announcement when it is ready to go. There is no need to email us asking when it will be available. In the Peak-of-Flight Newsletter we have published 25 different rocket plans, all at no cost! The complete set of 25 different rocket plans are found in the Peak-of-Flight Plan Pack but it is our free gift when you subscribe to our newsletter! If you already haven't downloaded the Plan Pack, you will find it here. You will be asked to complete the store check-out process in order to download, but it is totally free for you. If you'd like decals for the rockets in the plan pack, we do have them available here. View this week's Rocketry Workshop Video (Duration: 5:02) | | Previous videos are found on our archive page. |

| Check out the latest products to hit Apogee's shelves! | Sanding Tee | | 
The Apogee Sanding Tee is more than just a special aluminum sanding block. It has several features that create a lot of versatility that will help you make rockets quicker, and that look and perform better. Use it to sand fins flat, to stack-sand the edges to make them uniform size, and to round off the leading and trailing edgs. Unlike other sanding blocks, there is a special radius edge to help you sand hard-to-reach fin fillets on really long fins. And as a added bonus, you can use the angle to draw lines down the tube for making fin locations. If you're like us, this will be one of your favorite and most-used tools in your workshop. |
| Frit: Payload Altitude Rocket | | 
The "Frit" rocket is a contest model designed for the Payload-Altitude event. It is designed specifically for the NAR's competition event where the object is to boost a one ounce payload as high as possible. We completely redesigned this rocket to use the new smaller diameter NAR Payload Weight (included in the kit). It has a completely new nose cone, laser-cut payload tube, and instructions. Your next altitude record is waiting for you to claim it! |

Apogee is my "go to" supplier for most of my rocketry related purchases. They are not always the cheapest. And yes, they charge for shipping. But what I need is always in stock and it is usually on my doorstep a couple of days later. And where else will you find such a wealth of information and how-to articles to help with your projects? Apogee has been around for so long because Tim understands what his fellow rocketeers need and what they want to stay on the cutting edge of our hobby. Thanks to everyone at Apogee for all their hard work on our behalf. — Bill Heath | |

We're looking for someone to write a definitive guide to selecting igniters, controllers and batteries for rockets. We'd love to have a newsletter article on that topic, because we get lots of inquiries about it. Is that you? Do you know how many e-matches can be set off in a cluster by a 3.7v 400 mAh battery? See our Newsletter Guidelines on how to submit an article on this topic and get paid upto $350 for your time. | |

 I need help with generating the bi-weekly newsletter articles since it takes a lot of effort to put them together. And I'm willing to pay big bucks for your help. So ask yourself, are you looking to earn some extra money? I'm now actively seeking writers for articles to appear in this newsletter. And I want unique and cutting-edge articles because that is what you want to read, right? I realize this, so to get articles from outside writers that have the same level of quality, I'm going to have to pay a lot of cash to make it worth it for them. So I've come up with a compensation package where I'll pay up to $350 for good how-to articles. Are you a writer, and does that interest you? That is a lot of cash! Far more than you'll get by writing for other magazines. And with over 23,000 worldwide subscribers, if you write for the Peak-of-Flight Newsletter, you'll gain a lot of notoriety. Writing for the Peak-of-Flight Newsletter is a great way to show off your rocketry projects and your technical expertise, at the same time as helping out other rocketeers. Imagine how great you'll feel knowing that you made a difference to the hobby. If you're interested in writing, see the guidelines on our site. | |
