I wasn't being cruel. Conway was trying to sell of much of his rocketry stuff a few years ago just as I was getting into it and I saved a bunch of money by buying a couple altimeters, a motor case and...

NAR can't use clusters to certify, Tripoli can. Warren Musselman

Welcome back Conway - and I want to thank you for selling me all that rocketry stuff you did back when you stepped out of the hobby. I've had some good flights on that AMW 1750 case you sold me and I'...

Entries into the Single Shot Sweepstakes will be accepted through the close of flight ops on Sunday at MHM OR when the first person takes a shot at it. I'm personally planning on a test flight of my b...

$100 side bet? hmmm... this is getting interesting. My focus this MHM is the Tripoli (and club) L altitude record. I have a couple other tentative shots including the 24mm G bird I mentioned as well a...

I do it all for damn near every altitude flight I make - WD-40 the launch tower rails, I generally spend a couple weeks sanding and priming and filling and sanding my birds before I paint them and the...

That's what I love about these contests... the challenge... To quote John Wilke.. "Well hike you your skirts and lets go for it boys..." Warren

The current club altitude record for the G motor is 6383' and is held by John Wilke. The Tripoli world G record is 7567' and is held by William Inman. As a matter of discussion, it is VERY unlikely th...

Firstly, AT doesn't make a G80-0. You remove the ejection charge from the well and fill the flash hole with a dollop of 5 minute epoxy or a wad of grease. Secondly - 7000' is probably a fantasy. Warre...

You can use an altimeter for deployment and MUST use an altimeter for altitude determination. It must be an unmodified commercial altimeter. What you cannot do on the 2006 Single Shot Sweepstakes is u...

There is a decent list of good recording altimeters, both barometric and accelerometer based. How fancy you get determines how much you spend. I have a Perfectflight MAWD - fits a 24mm tube, downloads...

I also use the Perfectflight MAWD, small enough to do dual deploy in a 24mm airframe, but it has problems sometimes. Warren

I too use Missileworks RRC2X's for most of my workhorse dual deployment rockets - the altitude resolution isn't as fine as some, but the reliability and accuracy are great. To club members, Jim sells ...

That is hysterical to be sure... By the way, the name of my L-altitude record bird is "Delicate Sound of Thunder", my J-altitude record bird is "Hot Needle of Inquiry", my G-altitude record bird is "A...
