Roton is an ex-parrot.
The company failed because they could not get enough money to keep the project going. There was a plan to move the test bed rocket to a place down in Ramona in East San Diego county, but that idea didn't work out either, they ended up punching a hole in the bottom of a chook in trying to move it.
Just about 3 weeks ago the whole left over building and any hardware ( including the rocket ) was sold at auction for back taxs. Last I head the rocket was going to be turned into scrap and sold off as junk.
Just cos I'm a brit dosn't mean i watch monty python ;-)

I went to the liquidation auction. Nothing worth buying and I am a rocket geek!
