Sweeeeet!

I wanna see that fly!

8) Nice, but what are all those holes and tubee looking things for? 😈

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

Anyone got any old F101's or long burn 24mm Ellis G's...? Maybe 6? 😈 😈

Then again, the question comes up on getting them all lit in the air...

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, SU. Boy, that would be a trick to get 6 of thoes suckers to light in the air! Good Luck! 8)

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 seemed to light pretty well. Timer will be either PET2 or Perfectflite MT3G. The PET2 would allow 3 then 3 starts.

I just need to find a source for pyrogen-augmented ematches that will fit in such small motors.

Anyone???

Thanks,
Ken

I have 4 or 5 F101's 😆 😯

Very Nice. I'm not that bold yet. I am being very conservative.

No thrills....just get level one.

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 by
MHM may test fly it??????

I will be trying my Level 1 on a HI-Tech H45.
Or a scratch built 3" called Odyssey.

I also have a 5.5" Big Nuke. I think that is a
year or so away.

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'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 case from the $20 deal.

Ken

but after L1, things get fun and expensive 😈

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!

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 the recovery harness, and drill a few more holes for rivets, pressure relief holes, altimeter vents, etc, and mount the switch for the altimeter.

Mixed my first batch of West this weekend. Man, that's runny stuff when you're used to off-the-rack tube epoxy! Have to see how it goes with the microballoons for the fillets.

Ken

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 🙂
