OpenRocket Simulation

See how this rocket is expected to perform with different motor configurations by downloading the free OpenRocket design file.

The file can be opened using OpenRocket, a free rocket design and flight simulation program available for Windows, macOS and Linux.

What is an OpenRocket design file?

An OpenRocket design file contains a digital model of the rocket, including its dimensions, weight, body components, fin shape and recovery system.

The rocket has already been entered into the software, so you can open the file and begin testing different compatible motors without building the model from scratch.

OpenRocket can help you explore:

  • estimated altitude and maximum speed;
  • flight stability;
  • acceleration and flight duration;
  • deployment timing;
  • descent rate;
  • the effect of wind; and
  • where the rocket may land.

It is a useful way to learn more about the rocket’s expected performance and compare motor options before building or launching.

Download the .ork file, open it in OpenRocket and start running your own flight simulations. Always confirm your final motor selection and launch conditions with an experienced rocketeer or launch official before flying.

Safety Notice

Model and high-power rocketry activities must be conducted in accordance with all local laws, regulations, and safety requirements. Always fly at approved launch sites using appropriate safety procedures and launch equipment.

Rocket motors, igniters, and launch systems are sold separately unless otherwise stated. Adult supervision is recommended for younger builders.

Always inspect your rocket before flight and follow manufacturer’s motor instructions, established range safety practices, and guidance from recognised rocketry organisations such as Tripoli Rocketry Association.

In Australia, additional restrictions may apply regarding launch altitude, approved launch locations, transportation, and motor usage. Users are responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable regulations and flying safely at all times.

For Australian aviation and launch regulations relating to model rocketry, please refer to the CASA Model Aircraft & Rocketry Information.
