They will be deciding their schedule this weekend at their annual meeting.Edward

AWESOME JOE!!! Thank you for everything!Edward

If we knew what we were doing, they wouldn’t call it Research. Plan ahead – Add two more dates to the TRA Research launch date possibilities. Final draft of the Permit Application was adjusted to include Sunday, April 11th as…   Read more»

If you don’t want to build your own stand I have one and I know a few other do – that way you don’t have to invest in any other equipment.Edward

I for one would like to add my voice to the interest for research launches. I joined the club just in the last few months for the primary purpose of putting up my own motors. I do understand that this…   Read more»

Both Jeremiah and I have stuff to fly as well. It takes some planning ahead for us to be there though. I really wish there were some on Saturdays though, Sundays are tough. Both of us commonly work the AMs…   Read more»

Research Days area significant item for NCR. The main reason for fewer of them this year is that we have a reduced summer launch schedule due to accommodating NARAM and some other clubs’ launch schedules – something I was vehemently…   Read more»

Also remember that we “lost” two of the few who were research guys last year, Conway and that “Sponge Bob” guy. Giving us great pictures from the air and beautiful blue motors. Alas and alack…, JW. Not in that…   Read more»

Yes to both questions. If enough interest is there, additional Research days could conceivably be added. A lot will depend on the final draft of the “Standards for Operations Recreation Event Pawnee National Grassland”.Tripoli Colorado should be setting their calendar…   Read more»

Question – why is a spool stable?Maybe it has to do with how much air they are pushing.Have to look at it in a wind tunnel.Some one should get on that!

And I thought I was a semantic warrior. Mister Wilke raises an interesting aspect of Rule Making and Breaking. The process was to make the rules straight forward and simple enough that the contest was fun, regardless of personal interpretations….   Read more»

I don’t know the reason a spool is stable, but you actually only need one of the plates, and it doesn’t matter which. I launched a few C6-5 spools, some with the front plate only, some with the back plate…   Read more»
