APOGEE COMPONENTS 05023 Cirrus Breeze Sliding Wing Rocket Glider | Brand New

Description: The Cirrus Breeze is a rocket glider kit; which means that it goes up as a rocket, and comes down as a glider. This particular class of glider is in the group called by the National Association of Rocketry as a "Rocket Glider." To be awarded this classification, it has to come down as one piece - exactly the same way it went upward. What makes it transition from a rocket into a glider? In this case, the wing is on a slide box and can move along the fuselage boom. At launch, the wing starts out being in an aft position. This is similar to putting the fins on the rear of the rocket and moves the Center-of-Pressure to the aft of the balance point (the Center-of-Gravity). This is what allows the rocket to boost straight when it lifts off from the pad (Engine NOT included). When the rocket reaches its peak altitude, the ejection charge in the motor fires off and burns a tiny thread. This thread is what holds the wing in the rear position. With the thread released, a rubber band pulls the wing, and it slides forward along the fuselage boom to the front position. Now the Center-of-Pressure is in a position that allows the model to turn into a glider. Once it is in glider mode, the model soars like an eagle. It is designed for NAR competition, so it is very efficient.
