Description

This is a model of the new HONDA rocket. At 1:21 scale (80mm) the rocket is approximately 16 inches tall. This model features retractable landing legs, a single gimble motor nozzle and extendable grid fins.

The lower section has ‘print-in-place’ upper landing legs. The landing leg brackets and sliders and the motor nozzle are also ‘print-in-place’. Depending on your printer, various supports may be needed as well as minor sanding and fitting – especially the lugs of the landing leg brackets where they snap into the lower hull section. I added putty and sanded smooth the landing legs’ two parts. Note: Print-in-place pieces should be printed with 'base plate only' supports so that the joints do not get filled.

I purchased a figure that you can find on maker sites and scaled the Honda tech to show the size of the rocket. Given the success of this attempt from Honda, and as a marketing exec, I have included a decal sheet PDF to dress it up.

I hope this unique model will bolster your collection for our new space race and also serve as a great STEM science project.

Happy Modeling!

TOKYO, Japan, June 17, 2025 – Honda R&D Co., Ltd., a research and development subsidiary of Honda Motor Co., Ltd., today conducted a launch and landing test of an experimental reusable rocket*1 (6.3 m in length, 85 cm in diameter, 900 kg dry weight/1,312 kg wet weight) developed independently by Honda. The test was completed successfully, the first time Honda landed a rocket after reaching an altitude of nearly 300 meters.
This test marked the first launch and landing test conducted by Honda with an aim to demonstrate key technologies essential for rocket reusability, such as flight stability during ascent and descent, as well as landing capability. Through this successful test, Honda achieved its intended rocket behaviors for the launch and landing (reaching an altitude of 271.4 m, and landing within 37cm of the target touchdown point, with a flight duration of 56.6 sec), while obtaining data during the ascent and descent.
