CORSA Meetings

CORSA Meetings will now be on the second Wednesday of each month.

Everyone is welcome to attend. We discuss CORSA business such as launch plans and outreach projects, as well as general rocketry topics. We begin gathering at 6:30, but the meeting doesn’t start in earnest until 7:00. Our meeting space is generously provided by Otterbein University:

The Point – Room 139
60 Collegeview Rd
Westerville, Ohio 43081

Come to learn and share about hobby rocketry!

HPR Launch!

The crops are in, the field is ready, and so are we! CORSA’s High Power launch field (6,000′ waiver) at Case Farms will be the site for our November launch. We are on for November 9, the weather looks great. If you’ve not seen High Power Rocketry in action, don’t miss it!

We’ll also be prepared for LPR and MPR – Low Power and Mid Power rocket launches, but the field will have corn stubble, and rockets will be very easy to lose. Use locator beacons if you have them!

We’ll start setting up at 10:00, and be ready to launch by 11:00. We love to answer your questions about hobby rocketry, so don’t be shy!

Come join us! Case Farms is at 3297 Panhandle Rd, Delaware, OH 43015. There’s a long gravel lane, please drive slowly, and be aware of the railroad crossing (it has no signals!) Trains may occasionally block the lane; be patient, and it will be cleared. Parking will be ample, in the gravel lot among the buildings, and to the right of the lane past them. We will have a port-a-john on site.

We’ll have two HPR pads, with 1″ (1010) rail; two MPR pads, with 1/4″ rods; and 6 or 12 LPR pads with 1/8″ and 3/16″ rods. Our waiver will be to 6,000′, starting at 11:00, and continuing until at least 2:00. We’ll be flying under NAR rules, so commercial motors only.

CORSA Launches

Do you need help launching a model rocket?
Do you want to launch rockets with us?
Would you like to watch dozens of rockets launch high into the sky?

If  you are seeking like-minded people to launch with, need help getting your rocket in the air, or just want to watch exciting launches, the CORSA monthly launch is for you. We are a group of model rocket enthusiasts and want to share our enthusiasm with other people.

CORSA events are free to attend and easy to participate in.

Held the third Saturday of each month (weather permitting); located at Freedom Park in Sunbury, or at a local farm field. Check the events calendar for location. CORSA launches are fun and exciting for kids and adults.

If you need help launching a rocket, just show up.   Our club members have a combined 120 years of model rocket experience.  We will be able to help you.
If you want to launch with us, just bring your rockets and your motors.  Launch pads are provided and participation is free.
If you want to watch, just show up with a chair . The launch is ordinarily from 11am to at least 2pm.

Parking is free and so is the event.
You may wish to bring chairs, a table for preparing your rockets, sunscreen, water, or snacks.

Additionally, if your scout troop, 4-H club, library, or class wants to have a rocketry project, contact us! We love to do build sessions, presentations, and launches for youth groups!
