All of the parts for the large two stage rocket came from Centuri. The original single stage that exploded probably was the Aero-Dart kit, since I remember the original rocket had a checker board pattern on the tube like the one shown in the 1964 Centuri catalog. We also used their "F" Class engines for the Aero-Dart type rocket. We may have had Centuri manufacture the special engines we needed for the large two stage rocket as well, but I am not sure.
In reviewing the 1964 Centuri catalog, I remember building and flying the Payloader, the Black Window and the Acro-Bat. The Acro-Bat did not fly well at all. We had better luck with Astron Space Plane and the Astron Falcon from Estes.
The White and Orange two stage rocket may be a Pro-Dyne Skylark ??? I seem to remember that we got that kit from Utah.
