Invictus is a multi-configuration rocket that is 4in in diameter and almost 6ft tall. Flight 1 of this rocket used 3 stages but was not successful. Flight 2 ran on a G80T-7 on the first stage and an F15-4 motor on the 2nd stage, but unfortunately only lit its first stage. Invictus is currently being iterated on heavily as it transitions to high-power.
Onkla SXC has been developing a fully homemade, partially 3d printed model rocket using Thrust Vector Control to steer the vehicle without there being fins on the side of the rocket. This project plays a major role in developing the avionics systems for Aims-1 and could launch in 2025.
Outer recently flew the first Redshift rocket. This vehicle flies on F, G and H class motors and will give Outer their L1 certification by 2026. This will give more of the Exela team L1 level experience in rocketry, furthering the thought behind our programs.
The first flight was fully successful.
HOLT, named after The Holt, a region in Doom Eternal, is a 3 inch diameter high power rocket. It flew on an Aerotech H100, reached an altitude of 2700 feet, and went half the speed of sound, earning ASA SXC a level 1 certification.
Mythos Technologies is currently working on Hera 2, and has launched Hera 3 before as well. These are being developed to be reusable rockets that are rapidly built and flown. Mythos has a large fleet of these rockets, new and flown.
Brazos Aerospace is working on many different rockets that are similar at their core. These include egg-launcher rockets and multistage rockets like shown in the picture. Brazos uses unique construction methods and is also pursuing reuse.
Exela's Mid-Power Projects
Our multi-stage rocket that is testing stage seperation and recovery. The first stage is entirely 3d printed.
This rocket's first stage runs on an E12-0 rocket motor and the second stage runs on a C6-7.
This rocket flew for the first time on April 5, 2025 from Maryland. The rocket pitched over heavily, but stage seperation was flawless. This was our first successful staging. Flight 2 will be the final flight of SoberRocket and aim to solve Flight 1's issues.
(Operational)
Our mid-powered rocket that will test payload weight, going supersonic, and going multiple miles high in altitude.
Flight 1: Launched on a E12-6 motor from Amesbury, MA at the CMASS rocketry event. It was fully successful. This flight carried 2 onboard cameras.
