Actually, not trying to screw things up but the Research launch on the 13th has been postponed until the following weekend. We will still be flying on Saturday, the 12th and the Research launch will be the next weekend on…   Read more»

Good ahead and post it – I don’t have to watch it again.

Ah, now you know why I keep my head in a bag. Scary to think that still gets played occasionally.

I’ve got the case I can loan if interested. Heck of a good deal in my eyes. And a transmitter to boot, if you’re in for the walk.

Thanks. I didn’t think Estes was making M motors yet.

Enlighten the rest of us – I was completely baffled (not surprizing) by the nomenclature you presented.

Weird how the whole “pay it forward” system seems to work. Thanks go to you Mike for reasonable and fair opportunities to assist the pursuit of hobbies and safe fun.

Got to say Sponge Bob and his friends could always fly under my name. We all learned alot from Mike – don’t write him off completely. True rocketeers always come back to the launch field eventually. Cheers!!! How much do…   Read more»

Greetings and welcome to NCR’s forums. Possibly the easiest way is to wrap the straight edge of a piece of paper around the tube, tape it in place so that it’s even, mark the line with a sharpie or pen…   Read more»

wow, accidents happen. Please, let’s all be very careful out there and keep the pointy end facing up.

Makes my left thumb incident not worth mentioning. Power tools bite hard, even after they’ve been turned off. I sure hope Scott has a good, fast recovery before his divorce wipes him out completely. Just Rockets has been a good…   Read more»

Doesn’t really matter where you get your powder from as long as you keep it dry. Blunderbuss is a good shop. Used to be a great shop in old Fort Collins, Grandpa’s Guns or something but I’m not sure it’s…   Read more»

That’s a good price but shipping will be expensive. Since it has been blessed by the BAFTE for explosives storage, it’s probably worth the investment. The key points would be the locks and whatever agent you have that happens to…   Read more»

Yes, one has been ordered for the launch weekend and Potluck BarBQ. We could probaly use another grill, if someone was so inclined. Let me know by PM or phone. Thanks.

Too bad the boxed set DVD’s cost so much but I definately need to add them to my library since I can’t always watch the boob tube when the programs are on.

No need to re-certify – both NAR and TRA will recognize accomplishments with a photo copy of current status on new/ change applications. NCR has tried to make it as easy as possible for NAR members to fly on TRA…   Read more»

Okay so start thinking about the appropriate events for next year. Until NAR accepts altimeters for altitude shots, we’ll stick to duration events. WF needs to add up to, not over, 80 for a regional. Toss out some ideas and…   Read more»

Results have been calculated for the 2nd Annual Pawnee Pioneer Open. Congratulations go out to all the contest flyers, volunteer timers and range assistants for their help in making this another successful, safe and fun NCR sponsored NAR sanctioned event….   Read more»

Congratulations Mike!!! Thanks for representing NCR and doing so well. Maybe other members will get the bug again and play for points and prizes next contest year.

Whoa now – ease on back a touch. Too many speculations and too much ignorance involved in this supposedly newsworthy scare. Ain’t nothing but media spin and boredom that makes this a Code Red. Next we’ll learn the mis-guided flying…   Read more»
