OpenRocket is a free, fully featured model rocket simulator that allows you to design and simulate your rockets before actually building and flying them.
🛠️ Design, Visualize, and Analyze
Design your rockets using a rich selection of built-in components:

Visualize your masterpiece in 3D:

Plot & Analyze your simulation results for precision and improvements:

🌟 Features
- Six-degree-of-freedom flight simulation
- Automatic design optimization
- Realtime simulated altitude, velocity, and acceleration display
- Staging and clustering support
- Export to other simulation programs (RockSim, RASAero II)
- Export component(s) to OBJ file for 3D printing
- Cross-platform (Java-based)
... plus many more
