Tripoli Pittsburgh conducts its High Power Launch events under the name DRAGON'S FIRE. 2010 begins a new era in our High Power activities with all launches set as two day events. Saturdays are called Commercial Launches. This means only Commercially manufactured motors may be used and everyone attending the launch is eligible to fly. Sunday is declared a Research Day and only persons hold a National Tripoli membership can fly. Research Motors may be flown only by National Tripoli Members holding a level 2 certification or higher. Level one flyers can only fly Commercial motors.

Tripoli Pittsburgh has been sponsoring these High Power Rocket Launches for the last eight years with very successful results and attendance. All ground support equipment is supplied by Tripoli Pittsburgh so all you need to bring are your rockets, motors and personal supplies. A facility is always on site. Almost all of our launches are attended by at least one distributor, as a much appreciated convenience, if you need to purchase last minute motors and kits.
These launches are open to any and all interested persons, either to view or participate. However, due to Insurance Regulations only TRA members will be permitted to fly High Power Rockets (Class H and above). NAR members showing proof of current membership will also be permitted to fly High Power. All other persons, regardless of age, will be permitted to fly Model Rockets ONLY (up to and including Class G motors). NAR members are not permitted to fly on a Research day.
