Semroc - Rawhide

Home > Rawhide

The Rawhide was first released in 1966 as an entry-level single stage rocket with streamer recovery. Sharing many design features with the competing Estes Astron Mark II and Centuri Micron, the Rawhide was also a popular first rocket for beginners. The original Rawhide had a Part #G29 hardwood nose cone and later models were migrated to balsa nose cones.

The Rawhide is updated by using laser-cut fins. The original hardwood nose cone is replaced by a lighter, easier to finish balsa nose cone. The streamer is slightly wider than the original to enhance visibility during recovery. The original rubber shock cord is replaced with an elastic cord for longer life. The original method of slitting the body tube to anchor the shock cord has been replaced by a Kevlar® cord for greater reliability.
