This table is suppose to make it easier. You need to know your Gross Lift\u00a0Off Weight (GLOW) and your motor(s) specifications. Start from the top left\u00a0of the table\u00a0and keep going down and right until you meet all the requirements. The last\u00a0cell will tell you what you have to do to fly your rocket.<\/p>\n

Standard<\/strong> = Permission of the land owner, insurance, and a\u00a0fire permit.
\nWaiver<\/strong> = Standard plus a waiver filed with the local FAA controller\u00a0and a CA Pyro Technician Class III Rocketry. FAR 101<\/a>
\nPyro III<\/strong> is required when: a rocket that (1) is propelled\u00a0by one or more high power rocket motors (more than 160 Newton-seconds (36\u00a0lb.-seconds)\u00a0of total impulse or an average thrust greater than 80 N (18 lbs) or more than\u00a062.5 g (2.2 oz) of propellant,) ; (2) is propelled by a combination of model\u00a0rocket motors having an installed total impulse of more than 320 N-sec (71.9\u00a0lb-sec); (3) is propelled by a combination of model rocket motors having\u00a0more\u00a0than a total of 125 g (4.4 oz) of propellant weight; or (4) weighs more than\u00a01500 g (53 oz – 3.3lbs) with motor(s) installed.<\/p>\n
