Our rockets do not need a payload to fly, but it is an option that many people enjoy. Payloads on our standard rocket can weigh up to 10 pounds, and can be up to 7″ in diameter and 20″ long. They can be ejected from the rocket at apogee and return via parachute, be scattered to the wind at high altitude, or come back down still inside the rocket.
