 | Perhaps the most un-glamorized booster ever produced by von Braun’s team at Army Ballistic Missile Agency (ABMA) was the Juno II. Only ten of these vehicles were launched in a two and one half year period and only four of those flights were able to be called successful.
By the end of 1958 the von Braun team, on behalf of the newly created NASA, assembled and launched the first Juno II from Pad 5 at Cape Canaveral. NASA was itching to go from space planning to space flying and the Juno II, although developed by the ABMA, would give the public appearance of being a NASA vehicle and NASA project. The first launch of a Juno II, on December 6, 1958, lofted the Pioneer III probe. Thereafter, the vehicle’s track record gets fairly dismal with only three of the next nine flights officially considered successful. In the end the Juno II was simply a vehicle that was quickly passed by as spaceflight technology experienced an explosive growth.
The Juno II now holds the record as being NASA’s least successful launch vehicle. So, if you get more than four fully successful flights out of your Juno II, you’ll be doing better with your Juno II than either NASA or ABMA did with theirs!

The model is truly a "Sport Scale" model. It is not an exact scale replica of the original missile. It's also a "builders kit." The fins are made from sheet balsa stock cut from patterns provided. Instructions for accurate sanding/shaping are provided. No laser-cut fins are provided. Th model has twelve fins and four fin tips.
The four asymmetrical outboard booster nose cones are formed from paper patterns with detailed instructions on how to properly form and finish them to provide a very accurate and attractive appearance.

 | Odd'l Rockets' Break Away features "break-apart" recovery. At apogee, the rocket breaks into several sections which wiggle their way back to earth. A Kevlar tether holds the pieces together making recovery safe and easy. Just slide the segments back together and you are ready for another flight.
Odd'l Rockets has improved upon the original Break Away by using longer coupler connections and engineering better, easier-to-construct segment ties.

 | Based on the classic Centuri F-16 Fighter kit of the late 1970s, the Odd'l Rockets F-16 features a heavy BT-50 body tube, clear canopy, laser-cut fins, and simulated missiles and wing-tip fuel tanks.

 | From the fuzzy antenna on the top of his head to the bottom of his (three) feet, this little guy is out of this world. He looks friendly enough, but what's up with that raygun on his belt? Stand back as the Little Green Man takes flight!

 | The Pigasus is not your typical "three-fins and a nose cone" rocket. It's a two wings, four legs, and a snout rocket (and ears and glasses, too).
Fly this pink piglet on a B6 or C6 engine for a squealing stable flight then watch as the porcine projectile returns to earth under its parachute.
