Isn't it the I65 8+ seconds of burn very cool.
I guess the N1000 16 second burn will be twice as cool 😯
What!!! N1000!
I feel it may be time to build an new extention to a 98mm rocket!
I'm getting a brand new CTI dual thrust M motor - it has one grain of Vmax and 4 of Imax, IIRC. It should give 1 second at 600lbf, followed by 4 seconds at 250lbf. Should be a lot of fun 😀
Chris,
That sounds sweet! What day are you thinking of flying and what's the bird? Are you getting you're L3 at the same time?
No L3 on that one - I'll be attempting 3 miles and supersonic velocity in my AMRAAM (probably on Saturday), which will be a flight signed off on by a L3 (since I can't get my L3 on an already built rocket). I'll probably go for my L3 at MHM instead, though I'm not sure what rocket exactly I'll be using.
It'll definitely have a 98 though 😀
8) Hello all. Sorry to be so quite. Airfest took up so much of my time. All done now, so I will get in touch with everyone and let's get ready for Octoberfest! Lots of new things to talk about, I will write more soon. If you need to contact me call (970) 985-5172 and we can gab... Tim
Hey Tim - I'll be looking for something along the lines of a K550 or K570WW for Saturday if the weather is good. I was thinking about trying a Cesaroni but I just don't know anything about their loads. I'm more interested in big smoke and fire than colors.
Cessaroni motors provide all of the POWER, smoke and noise anyone could ask for. And the clean up is easy too. And there are other options as well. LOKI motors have huge thrust, long burn and also sparks if you're looking for 'em. Too many choices... not enough rockets.
The easy clean-up is probably the biggest factor in my book, assuming performance is similar.
Oh, the performance is more than similar. Better. I'm trying to remember the new CTI blues... they're really cool! Or hot... ask Tim about those. Even though the blues are blue, they have a heap of thrust.
Yeah! It's like Mike Bennett's Everclear research loads only blue. Very nice flight!
