Hi David -I sent you a PM… check that, or ping me at 3dogsrocketery@comcast.netThanks,JW3DR

JW, I never did get to see a price list. Curious about, 29mm,38mm, and 54. I have couple rockets on the drawing board.Heres a link to another carbon tube maker. I have bought nothing from them. Have had many email…   Read more»

Jeremiah, the carbon fiber in PR kits comes in two types – convolute (which is rather mundane looking) and filament wound, which looks something like snakeskin… a very exotic, patchy, sort-of-repeating-but-not-quite-repeating pattern… it looks absolutely awesome. If you have seen…   Read more»

Hey,Doh, ok I600 is 38mm. Darn it, I guess I’ll have to make one of those too, haha.Yeah, my bird is 29mm. pehaps it could be the top stage of a 38mm to 29mm two stage rocket, woosh! I had…   Read more»

The I600 is a 38mm load… you indicated you had a 29mm cone. Are you stepping things down?

Hey everyone,Thanks to Sean, for the graphite nose cone. I have a finished CF bird that is 29mm at 43.750″ long with the weight of 8.43 oz, prolly alittle lite for alltitude. What is the optimal mass for a I600?…   Read more»

Mayhaps I’ll wade into the fray myself… The rocket I’d have to fly is apogee deploy, so the weatherman would have to be nice to us.If the weather IS good, the alphabet will heat up again, too – I know…   Read more»

Dont you have to pay additional 20 bucks too. Ypu would if it were slots, for a chance to win again!

Absolutely. So I’m in for $40, assuming I fly again.

Yes, I’ll have it.

I may have to dig out “Beyond Consolation” for a blast. Adrian, will you have your tower at the next launch?

Showing my ignorance here – did we change the rules to allow multiple shots in the SSS / SSSS? I wasn’t at the meeting last year. Seems to run a bit contrary to the spirit of “Single” Shot Sweepstakes. I’m…   Read more»

Yep. Chris got his Cirrus Dart to around 12 kft. A tracker is definitely recommended. That could be a winning shot if my recovery skills haven’t improved sufficiently, or if my new 38mm sustainer turns out to be a dog.Tim,…   Read more»
