SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, California USA — The amazing Carbon Fiber RAVEN from Shadow Composites, Inc. has been out of production for over a year, during which time we have been polling intrest in a second run of this very special kit. We are pleased to announce - THE RAVEN IS BACK

 

We have received enough interest in another run of the remarkable RAVEN to merit production run #2. This is to be a numbered run (your RAVEN will be registered to you). Each RAVEN will be custom made, in a limited run of 50 total kits. Multiple kits may be purchased.

We will be updating the website with all of the detail information on the RAVEN to help you with your decision in the next few days, check in the rockets area at http://www.shadowaero.com for the final RAVEN specs for this run.

The price for the RAVEN will be the same as the first run - 219.00. The optional dual deployment module will also be the same price - 80.00. There have been a few design upgrades to the RAVEN to enhance performance, and these will be listed at the website in the next few days.

The RAVEN is simply the most advanced high power rocket on the market -- Paper, phenolic, or fiberglass, there is NO rocket than can compete with the RAVEN, and this has been shown time and time again with Mach 2.2, 100g+ launches on the mighty Kosdon J1500 - the nastiest 38mm motor out there! And the RAVEN lived to tell about it every time! The prototype RAVEN has over 50 flights on it, and the rocket has proven to be virtually indestructible.

In order to bring back the RAVEN, we must proceed in a certain manner. In order to eliminate 'lookiloos', we must insist on a non-refundable deposit of 50.00 for each RAVEN requested. When your deposit is received, we will notify you by standard or email as to the expected delivery date for your RAVEN (after the 7/31/00 deposit deadline).

When your RAVEN is complete, we will ask for the balance of your payment, and your RAVEN will be shipped out to you when that balance is received. Expect a 3-4 week delivery time from initial placement of order. This process is necessary, as this is a HUGELY expensive kit to produce, and we must approach this run with care. We will accept deposits through 7/31/00, at which time we will determine whether there are enough to warrant the run. If there are not, all deposits will be returned immediately.

As any of our previous customers will tell you, we are among the most reliable and trustworthy vendors in the rocketry industry, and we always deliver what we promise. We promise this second run of the RAVEN to be a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a very special extreme performance rocket, the only carbon fiber rocket kit on the market, and the fastest amatuer rocket on the planet!
