Do the AMW come with ignitors or do I need to find one? If I do, any recommendations on what to use? I plan to fly a K555SK on Saturday and if all goes well I’m hoping to fly a…   Read more»

I don’t think we’ll need to worry about dryness, at least for MHM. Beyond that is questionable of course, but given that March and April are typically the wettest months of the year in the Front Range and Plains, I’m…   Read more»

I ave loaded a AMW load and it very similar to Aerotech. There are very well written directions. One pointer is that sense your flying a Skid Mark i would watch the weather , becasue if it is really dry…   Read more»

I can help you out or better yet, you can see Jim Amos at his booth (the AMW vendor onsite) and have him give you the look see while you’re doing it.Warren

There are many companies out there but here are just a few. I have the Rocket Hunter http://rockethunter.com/ receiver and transmitter. I like them a lot but one disadvantange is the size of the transmitter. It’s not huge but for…   Read more»

Paint?What is this paint you speak of

I’ll have mine there for some of you to look over for me. But it won’t be painted and ready to go, so no flight. I still haven’t figured out a good way to do the electronics.PAINT??? we don’t need…   Read more»

I know of at least 3 people who’ve said they’re flying their SSSS bird at MHM.Warren

Ill be flying a SSS rocket which many parts were givin to me by a friend.

This has been a dead thread of late. Any SSSS takers this weekend? As noted earlier, I’m flying on Friday or Saturday. I’ll fly my J570 rocket for my SSSS, as I don’t have time to put together an optimized…   Read more»

Doug, I’ll fly one of those days… Friday if it is calm and moderately warm (and if I can get the day off) otherwise I’ll do my attempt on Saturday.JW

I’m still waiting for my (backordered, of course) components to come in (especially some fabric)…I’ll fly before Oktoberfest though. No November flight for me this year

I won’t be flying my SSSS or SSS this early in the year – I usually try to fly in June/July/August due to the added advantage of hotter, thinner air and less drag. Besides, I haven’t even started to build…   Read more»

I plan to fly mine at MHM. I don’t expect it to be competitive, but if I break 10K and get it back I will be thrilled. I’m using a PML Cirrus as a starting point and plan to make…   Read more»

If that’s the case, I have a design for a 14 motor monster :DSure, it’ll cost an arm and a leg, but hey…

If it’s the former I’m gonna go order that LOC kit with the 7 motor cluster 😛 . I still have 3 weeks right?

So is it an entry per burnt motor in the cluster or just an entry for flying a cluster? Great idea either way. Thanks Tim!

I may even fly my big cluster on 3 H-128’s if I can round up a couple of cases.

Ken had the most original L1 attempt and success I’ve seen with this bird. Is this the one, Ken? It was spectacular!

Great idea Tim. Now I’m even more glad I finally got my Starburst painted! Just have to decide between F39’s or F24’s… 😀
