I think people get caught up in the pursuit of perfection and never get around to building or more likely finishing their rockets or they wait for perfect conditions that never arrive. My opinion at least – it seems to…   Read more»

So Conway what is the status of you new endeavor?Also you going to be for the research launch on April 6th? Flying anything?

Also liner and casting tubes would be nice.

Working on that as well with keeping Local supply for 38mm up.

Also liner and casting tubes would be nice.

Sorry mate, make almost all my own stuff.Easy access to chemicals would be nice as long as the price is right. Bulk prices would be good for group buys.LEUP in process as we speak.

Just an FYI for those that dont know from my statment above reguarding firefox.This year they lost a court ruling in a Case with the CPSC.. Now just about EVERYTHING they sell requires a LEUP, as well as new shipping…   Read more»

They have lots of other interesting stuff too.

Yep, they do, Ken, but you need a LEUP to buy anything from them.

I’m not yet a research guy, but I certainly think about it.

Amen! By vote and launch days, NCR has embraced TRA research. Now let’s get it on!

Personally I welcome the idea whole heartedly.I’d like to see easy access to Loki reloads and whatever other motors you might care to carry plus on the research side I’d like to see:- chemicals, including bulk AP and AN, powdered…   Read more»

Classes, help with LEUP w/storage, and a FULL line of materials. One starts out low cost, then graduates to more exotic materials. At this point, I know a lot about the THEORETICAL science of rocket engines, but next to nothing…   Read more»

16+ views and yet no comments? I know all you research-ers have wants and needs and desires..

Sounds great Conway. I’m looking forward to trying some out.

Conway, are you or is anyone else an official stocked Loki dealer yet? If not are you still planning to be? I’m interested in trying some loads but I haven’t heard anything about them since Tim Thomas had a few…   Read more»

That would be quite impressive, as I have never heard of or seen a colored motor that could match W9 in Isp (230+ seconds in the atmosphere in relatively small motors)

Comparable in all.

W9 comparable in just speed, or in Isp too?

I’d love to find long-burning, full-impulse, G, H, and I motors. I didn’t see anything like that on Loki’s website, though.Actually looking comparatively to other manufactures in the G and H class specifically, Loki has about the same burn times…   Read more»
