Helios Ascendant

Push your high-power ambitions skyward with the Helios Ascendant - a bold, visually striking Level 3 centerpiece for serious rocketeers. Standing over 7.5 feet tall with a commanding 5.5-inch airframe and sleek, swept fins, this one-stage juggernaut is engineered for both presence and performance. Its clean, modern profile hints at power, while robust construction invites confidence at the pad and in the air.

Designed around advanced composite or high-grade plywood fins and a rugged fiberglass or phenolic body, Helios Ascendant is built for reliability under the extreme forces of M-class power.

Its balanced design and eye-catching lines make it equally at home on the launch rail or in your trophy display.
