Jim said he hoped to have some by LDRS. I requested s/n 0000001 🙂

Conway, assuming my dance card gets cleared with the flights I have in the queue I’d be delighted to help you….

Hey, that looks like a nice Ray LaPanse shot! That was a pretty cool flame to rocket ratio indeed…. I put it into MS Paint and calculated a 1.4X ratio 😉 I really appreciate your dad’s great work. The shot…   Read more»

John, looking forward to seeing HR! I don’t have anything cool from an EX standpoint… lots of little stuff that [hopefully] goes really high?J

I may be flying a whole bunch of stuff, on Sunday if the weather is bad on Friday or Saturday. I’ve got 5 boosts I’d really like to do. All commercial… My SSSS is one of them.

Come on guys, fess up. I need to know if I should come up Sat or Sun. :DDepends (don’t you just hate that answer?!)-if you want to fly, you must be TRA and L2 or higher. If you are both…   Read more»

I have the RRQS30 I could bring to the June launch for you to use. Fly it and measure the descent rate and see if it is what you like.DougDoug and Chris, thank you both for your kind offers. My…   Read more»

Cool. Thanks, Conway. If anyone has a RRQS30, I’d still like to pack it just so I can see if my current shock cords, etc. fit. I typically use tubular Kelvar, which takes a LOT of room. I’d like to…   Read more»

Go to http://www.info-central.org/index_recovery.html and click on “calculators” then “Black Powder”.Use this as a STARTING point. Always ground test. I am frequently surprised at how little or how much bp it may take for a project. I have several projects that…   Read more»

Kyle, PML has this from time to time. You might check with them?Now…. Inquiring minds want to know — what are you planning to do w/ that carbon fiber? 🙂

All of these sound great but the company is originated in Canada. So getting them will be a rough time, with the BATFE and all of them.I *think* we are OK since the regulations are mostly based on the weight…   Read more»

8) Sorry, JW it was late when I made the post.

Sorry, it was early when I read them 🙂 I should have known that.I’ve been badgering Dennet for years on the long-burn K… hopefully something is finally coming together?

That is a great way to seal a charge (Blu-Tack). I use something very similar that I got at Home Depot (IIRC) that is used to stick posters to walls.For charges, I use LOC 1/2″ launch lugs cut to random…   Read more»

Hey Ed, if I were you, I wouldn’t mail that thing. Too fragile. :-)Wouldn’t regular bathroom scales work in this case? Just curious why the precision weighing?JW

I rec’d inquiries from three folks (those who inquired, check your PMs) and have offered it to those three in the order they responded. We’ll sort it out at MHM. Thanks to all-JW

Thanks to all who responded via email, PM, or here… Tim, I’m set, thanks anyway!I do have another wee tiny issue that I need to discuss w/ you, will send you an email later- and see you on Friday!JW

Guys, I am kinda stumped on how to secure my altimeter in my SSSS bird. Hey Batman, have you solved this yet? if not, lemme know and I’ll help.As you said “SSSS” and not “SSS”, that means it is at…   Read more»

Thanks, guys, it sounds to me like I should hold off on dual deploy for a little while – sounds like fun, but complicated and lots of hardware required – can’t really afford to do all that at once (rocket…   Read more»

I’d be glad to show you what I do for dual deploy. It is one of those things that is easier to show you than explain to you, if you know what I mean. If you are up near Ft….   Read more»
