Is this that woven carbon-nanotube airframe with depleted uranium nosecone project you guys were working on? 😆 With you 3 on it, we know it's going to either be cool or REALLY cool, and WAY up there! ...

Unfortunately, I don't get the Science Channel. I'd love to have a copy (almost any format) if someone records it. THanks,Ken

If the land is relatively near the launch site, it might be wise for the club to send a "welcome basket" to the new owners and let them know about us and our responsible activities, notification proce...

You guys did NCR VERY proud! You looked like true professionals amongst quite a few whoopses. Hopefully the Discovery Channel coverage didn't focus too much on loud big-ego'd fat guys flying port-a-p...

Thanks to this wonderful economy, I'm back with the (many) unemployed again. I was told that the company I was with was very stable, no layoffs, good long term outlook. Well, that changed this year a...

Yeah, I was trying to figure out the photo as well. The main airframe looks completely intact (at the moment), but then I saw the motor ABOVE it! 😕 You built that thing like a tank, so if it's tota...

I don't think I'd recommend trying a Warp in anything but fiberglass. I've flown Warp9 in unreinforced LOC paper tube, granted not a high performance min diameter design, but no ill effects, just a st...

Apogee is just a reseller. You can get all the info from Always Ready Rocketry, who makes it. The early version 1.0 had issues warping in high heat/high humidity, but they claim it's cured in 2.0. ...

One important difference: They lost their field, we didn't. Stay vigilant, save the sparkies for barren land like Pueblo! Ken

Yeah, I got my set of 38 casings from Scott just before the whole mess came down. He put a few fingers through the table saw, with a long and not-so-perfect recovery. After that he got into a messy ...

Here's a thought: what if we picked a date and a venue, and attempted to see just how many of these 70+ H125's we could get off the ground simultaneously? I'm thinking not so much a contest with an en...

"Paint". What is this mysterious substance you guys refer to? Paint? I haven't got a clue as to what you are talking about?? It's like Kilz, except you don't have to wet-sand it before each flight....

Wow, that sounds like fun. How many are there? I'm assuming you're asking about the H125-20W. >70 I almost hate to ask this, but can anyone explain concisely the rules regarding expired cert mot...

Those who followed my rants during my employment search know that I ended up at Vaisala, a Finland-based company making weather measurement sensors and systems world-wide. One of the past projects (d...
