O.K. I'll go for 434.725.

I'm programming my Beelines now. Is 434.025 o.k. with everyone?

More "learning experiences" today. The avionics bay for this 24mm record attempt birduses the same Li-poly cell to power the Beeline transmitter and as a source for the deployment charge. In order to...

Partly because I wanted to be able to do some small-motor testing of altitude birds near home, and partly because I had an idea and wanted to see if it would work, I built my own tower this weekend. I...

I'll go in for the SSS. A lack of a deadline on entering that, plus plenty of other projects is why I haven't entered already.

Yes, I'm holding it at the CG, with the rocket unloaded below the nosecone. It's so odd handling it when it's that nose-heavy I thought I would try to capture the sensation in a photo to share. The n...

Here's a 24mm rocket I'm working on getting ready for MHM: Look ma, no strings! (or helium) It's mostly designed around an Ellis G37, but I'm keeping the back end light so that I can also fly it with...

I'd be happy to loan a new Parrot V2 for your project, but I'm no longer confident that I will have units available by MHM. In the last week I've put in 70+ hours and two trips to Houston for my regu...

Looks great, Mike. What's your design for the staging?

The F32 is a good motor. If I had to choose between it and the F10, I'd choose the f32 because the F10 needs gargantuan fins to be stable, and it's really hard to make them perfectly straight and get...

although I might not be able to take a TRA altitude record, I will be able to take the NCR record. Assuming that somebody doesn't use an F10 to put the NCR and Tripoli record out of reach of an F32 f...

38mm altitude attempt In which motor class? Details, we want details!

I've also been happy with some black powder cleaner I picked up at the store where I got my Pyrodex. I think it's water soluble, but it made cleaning out the inside of my rocket a snap. I wonder if ...

Greg, you're welcome. Warren, I agree that it would be better for people not to fly transmitters for rockets that stay in sight. But any motor larger than an A can be sent out of sight, given a suff...

Greg, I put the Beeline on the back of a little sled that has the Parrot, a screw switch and the deployment/Beeline battery on the front side. The antenna stuck out through a putty-sealed hole in the...
