MAP Level 2
For Level 2, two tasks must be completed, again a mandatory task, and additionally, one of a number of optional tasks, described below. It is recommend that kits are used for level 2 tasks.
Mandatory Task (Task 2.0)
Build, prep and fly a model rocket, and recover it successfully. The rocket must be flown on a class A, B, or C, BP motor and utilise a parachute recovery system. The Model Rocketeer must build the rocket used to complete the task. RTF rockets are not acceptable for this or any other Level 2 task.
Optional Tasks
Minimum Diameter, streamer recovery (Task 2.1)
Build, prep and fly a minimum diameter model rocket, and recover it successfully. The rocket must be flown on a class A, B, or C, BP motor and utilise a streamer recovery system. The Model Rocketeer must build the rocket.
Helicopter recovery (Task 2.2)
Build, prep and fly a model rocket, and recover it successfully. The rocket must be flown on an, B, or C class BP motors and utilise a helicopter recovery system. The entire rocket must be recovered using this system. The Model Rocketeer must build the rocket.
Glide recovery (Task 2.3)
Build, prep and fly a model rocket glider, and recover it successfully. The rocket must be flown on a class A, B, or C, BP motor and utilise a glide recovery system. The entire rocket must be recovered using this system. The Model Rocketeer must build the rocket.
Fragile payload (Task 2.4)
Build, prep and fly a model rocket carrying a fragile payload. Both the rocket and the fragile payload must be recovered successfully. It is suggested that a hen's egg be used as the fragile payload. Other payloads may be acceptable, at the discretion of the Model Achievement Programme Committee. The rocket must be flown on a class A, B, or C, BP motor and may utilise any recovery system. The Model Rocketeer must build the rocket.
Cluster rocket (Task 2.5)
Build, prep and fly a model rocket powered by two clustered motors, and recover it successfully. The rocket must be flown on a class A, B, or C, BP motor and utilise an appropriate recovery system. The Model Rocketeer must build the rocket.
Staged rocket (Task 2.6)
Build, prep and fly a two-stage model rocket, and recover it successfully. The rocket must be flown using a class A, B, or C, BP motor and utilise an appropriate recovery system. The Model Rocketeer must build the rocket.
