Unravel both pressure lines to a safe, designated point.
See the above video to watch the Model Z in action!
STEP 2
Connect bicycle pump to black air line, making sure the valve is closed.
(Students pressurize their rocket with air, using a bicycle pump with a gauge.)
STEP 3
The event supervisor connects a bicycle pump to the translucent (white) Air Line.
STEP 4
Load rocket onto the launch pad and slide the Restraining Pin around the nozzle of the rocket.
STEP 5
Pressurize rocket via the black air line. (This is accomplished by the student.)
The supervisor then pressurizes the white air line to approximately 80-100 psi. (This usually takes one or two strokes.)
STEP 6
You are now ready to launch!
Use the green button to launch the rocket!
