6th Anniversary celebration concluded

It's been a long, exciting month as FlisKits celebrated their 6th anniversary with friends from around the country and around the world.  There is still a lot of work to close out the celebration, such as selecting the winners of the two contests and getting ready for our next big event, NEMROC (see below).

Keep watch as the contest winners will be announced here in the coming days!

Thank you to everyone who helped us make this a most wonderful celebration!  If you get a chance, check out the Anniversary Launch photo's as well as the entries in the Photo Contest as well!

Now to begin thinking about NEXT year!

New England Model Rocket Convention
For a galaxy of fun!

Founded in the 1980's and running for 10 years, NEMROC was once the 2nd largest convention in the country (Pearl River being the largest).  Coming to an end in the early 1990's (man, that was LAST century!) the ideals, goals and hope of NEMROC never died.

With the formation of FlisKits we were determined to get this convention back on the calendar and are happy to announce the 4th NEMROC since its rebirth!

Join us the weekend of October 18th for a fun filled weekend of rocketry, rocketry and MORE rocketry!  

Saturday, October 18th will be indoors in Amesbury, MA with a full day of classes, seminars, build sessions, vendors, prizes and MORE!

Sunday, October 19th will be outdoors at our (CMASS) Amesbury, MA field for a full day of flying everything from 1/8A through K motors and everything in between!  

The most exciting New England event ever!

Keep watch over this space as details become available!

More excitement from the folks at FlisKits!  Two new kits and a new product accessory begins our new year of fun and challenges in the world of model rocketry!  If ever your rocketeer buddies tell you that everything that you can do with model rocketry has been done, invite them to check out FlisKits so they can know the truth!

To start the 2008 season right, FlisKits is proud to introduce:

MTTM Stinger: 
Our newest Micro to the MAXX^TM offering is a wonderful down scale of our popular Stingray model rocket kit.  Featuring laser cut basswood fins, water slide decals and simplified construction, the Stinger is sure to make an exciting addition to any micro fleet (or ANY fleet, for that matter!).  Standing about 6.5" tall, the Stinger continues the tradition from FlisKits to provide you with micro models that perform like real model rockets, offers challenges and provides results!  Kitted with the finest materials and best instructions in the industry, the Stinger is the proud new guy on the micro block!

Adfecta:
"Adfecta ad caelum, et intende non deesse" or "Aspire for the sky, and strain not to fail", the Latin version of our most famous slogan "Aim for the sky, and try not to miss^TM".  With special thanks to William Cooke, the rocketeer that helped us to realize this version of our slogan, FlisKits is proud to announce the ship that bears the name!  The Adfecta is a stunningly beautiful ship featuring massive yet stylish fin area, water slide decals, unique turned balsa nose cone and one of the most unique balsa adapters ever offered in a kit!  Standing over 2 feet tall and powered by 24mm motors, the Adfecta will highlight any fleet!  Beautiful in the air and on display, explore the universe of the United Solar Planetary Federation and the Hobbicron Industrial Empire with your very own scientific exploratory vessel!

Praetor-II:
Recognizing the success of the Corona-2 booster accessory, FlisKits is proud to offer a booster for our popular Praetor kit!  Featuring smaller than expected fins, this stylish booster will add true attitude to your Praetor model as no other accessory could have!  Giving the Praetor a powerful military look, this combination looks as good in the air as it does on display!  This booster kit, purchased separately, can be adapted to existing Praetor models and can also be purchased as a COMBO which includes the Praetor kit at a discount.  If you've enjoyed the Praetor it's time to give her some real air time!  If you've never explored this kit, now is the time to do it.

Look for our booth at NARCON 2008 with more new product announcements!
