I’ll bring it with me to Oktoberfest

Mark,I just checked with my son. He lost one at the July launch. Can you hold it until the next event.Ed

if nobody else claims it i will … i’ve got two mini meanie bodies, and two mini meanie nose cones somewhere on the prairie … !

I’ve got a bunch of the Aerotech 29mm hobbyline cases. I’ll sell you a good condition used one for $40. PM me for questions.Ken

Just read another post about Tim. Hey Tim, what companys do you carry? CTI any others? thanks for the homework help.$160 seems like alot. I’ve only built 4 rockets, flown 2 lots, an I204 that seems like WOWZER at this…   Read more»

So i check out the CTI sight, and it sounds like you get alot, but they are still $20 to $22 a shot. The best deal i found for the Aero Tech rms is $53 for the casing, and the…   Read more»

For low cost flying, it is hard to beat the AT 29mm reloads. I also use the 24mm ones a lot. For the Aspire and other minimum diameter rockets you need to be concerned with motor retention. You will have…   Read more»

Thanks. I have not yet tried the rocksim free download, do lots of you guys use it? would you recomend it? RockSim? Yep. And, Tim Thomas, from Giant Leap, is our main, onsite high power motor dealer. But he also…   Read more»

I fly the RMS 29-40/120 motors quite a bit and love them. I really like the f52 loads. Price is very cheap for reloads. Tim carries most reloads at the launches for these.Only thing I recommend if you buy this…   Read more»

Yeah… the CTI 29mm case set is a great deal and you can fly more motors than in any other brand. The other really nice thing about Cesaroni motors is that they basically light first time everytime if you get…   Read more»

Hi David,Rocksim is highly recommended. I don’t build much without it. If you only build kits and only by the instructions, then you can probably get by without it.The Aspire is pretty cool, i had one I flew several times,…   Read more»

Thanks. I have not yet tried the rocksim free download, do lots of you guys use it? would you recomend it?Maybe i try both, stremer for visablity and a smalll chute. To much weight?what do you guys think, the streamer…   Read more»

Tall grass yess.My Pawnee Arrow fell from 6000′ or so on a 36″ drogue.A 5″ by 7′ duel deploy. It only broke a 4″ piece just belowthe nose cone. I was pretty amazed.Right now the grass is pretty forgiving.

Good point about the streamer. Our launch sites have so much space, there is incentive to use a parachute to slow it down to <30 fps. I've got a custom 8.5" X-type parachute, and the readily available 10" X-type would…   Read more»

Great pictures, looks like everyone had a blast. Didnt have the Aspire done yet, so decide to work and do some catch up here around the house. That giving me 2 more weeks to get her finished. Hopefully she just…   Read more»

Yep great day! I wanted to thank John especially for loaning me his tracker which was definitely required. I had a nice shot on a 29mm G to G (I designed this rocket on H to H but the casings…   Read more»

Yep, we signed off on Sean’s record and got the paperwork headed to TRA. My hunch is Adrian will be back at the drawing board for the I boost as well.One of the odd (but good) challenges for altitude geeks…   Read more»

Just as an FYI, NCR does not have the capability of tracking records for anything other than single motor, single stage, non-clustered rockets at this time. While we would like to do so, we do not currently have the programming…   Read more»
