Our newer waiver has opened up a lot of this discussion. Until a couple of years ago, we had a 16K waiver, which wouldn’t have been able to contain even today’s J record. Not too long before that, we were…   Read more»

I think club records should have to be made by a club member in good standing at a club launch site. Two reasons for this. Part of the fun is for the rest of the club members to have the…   Read more»

I think birds should come back in “certifiable” condition.I prefer the idea the rocket can be made into “flyable” condition on the same day. For example, a slight zipper could be cut off and flown that same day even though…   Read more»

Personally I lean the same way you do John, however I add that it should also include non-club members who fly at either of our two sites in addition to club members flying anywhere – The BOTH A and B…   Read more»

Before the old web page was lost, we had very specific rules about altitude records. In fact, there was an entire page of rules, which were written up and adopted at a club meeting. One of those rules was that…   Read more»

It certainly is a lot thinner than the standard stuff.As for procrastination – I was throwing the final layer of tip to tip on my deuce the Tuesday before Oktoberfest. You aren’t the only one 🙂

Well, I’m certainly not going to win any awards for a quick build. Only 2 weeks left until Mayhem. At this rate, I’ll be lucky if she flies naked. Updated pictures at http://www.putfile.com/kfranzel/images/77902.Still need to fillet the fins, put together…   Read more»

I’m in the same boat for my L1. I might try to L2 with the same rocket, but we’ll see. Tim’s Cesaroni deal is just that…an EXCELLENT deal that I’m going to have to take him up on as well!

I’m keeping the L1 flight conservative as well. The same rocket, but no electronics and only one motor. Tim’s L1 deal with Cessaroni is too good to pass up. Haven’t decided between the H153 or H143SS. Both work in the…   Read more»

The LOC H45 is a terrific L1 kit. I did my L1 on a LOC Vulcanite, and a buddy of mine did his on an H45. Both great rockets… I very nearly did an upscale Vulcanite for my L3.

I have a HyperLoc-300 sitting here ready to build.Have an RRC2X to put in it for duel deploy.This is a big leap for me. If I have it togeater byMHM may test fly it??????I will be trying my Level 1…   Read more»

Very Nice. I’m not that bold yet. I am being very conservative.No thrills….just get level one.

I have 4 or 5 F101’s 😯

JK Tim on those motors! I know it’d take 6 small miracles to get such a beast lit.On the other hand, I would like to do it with either BP D12’s or E9’s, then maybe some Blue Thunder 24’s… F39’s…   Read more»

8) I have 2 or 3 F101’s. I tried to use one in November in my Canadian Arrow and it CATO’d real bad, It blew the bottom of the Arrow off, major repair. I also have a few Ellis G,…   Read more»

8) Nice, but what are all those holes and tubee looking things for? Anyone got any old F101’s or long burn 24mm Ellis G’s…? Maybe 6? -KenThen again, the question comes up on getting them all lit in the…   Read more»

Thats just the ejection baffle, you should see the motor mount! 😯
