AltitudeD12-5 900' E12-6 1500'Made in the USAHistory The Aerobee 150 was designed by Aerojet General and was first flown in 1955 as an Aerobee-Hi. The Aerobee series was developed to replace the V-2 and WAC Corporal and was an outgrowth of the Navy’s Bumblebee project. NASA renamed the Aerobee-Hi to Aerobee 150 in 1959, but they were still essentially the same design. Evolving over the years to a four fined version, the Aerobee 150A, and a two stage version, the Aerobee 300 “Spaerobee”, the program was highly successful with over 500 launches.Instructions: Aerobee 150 Model Rocket Kits are rated by Skill Level1 Beginner2 Intermediate3 Advanced4 Expert5 MasterIf you are just starting in the hobby start at the beginner level and move up from there at your own pace.What is needed to build and flyAll model rockets come in kit form that require assembly.
