If you lose a fin during a stable boost - even at Mach 2, I'll rebuild it for you and maybe even buy you another motor. Those fins are ON there and ain't coming off. (Unless you sanded through the car...

Which would remind many of us of MHM 2007 or 2008... we got dumped on and some folks nearly didn't get out to Road 122.

Nutserts rock! On the other hand, if you only build minimum diameter, you don't have to worry about it.

Chris, as always you are right - or at least righter than I am in the explanation. It is related to the combination of airframe diameter, fin root chord length and semi-span. I still haven't found the...

Chris, I'm far from knowledgeable about this. I had the question myself a number of years ago and so I asked the venerable Henry Spencer (do a Wiki search on him if you've never heard of him...) I can...

Sorry you missed an awesome launch. A tad breezy at times, but gorgeous warm day and everything was coming down north of the pads. The NAR contest folks were out in force, my grandkids and their new f...

Make no mistake, this bird is the shit! Best fillets I've ever seen anyone bring me for a layup. (by the way, aerodynamically, 10% of semi-span is a minimum. 20% is closer to ideal in terms of resolv...

Oh geez, don't tell me we had another fire

Turned out VERY nice Scott. How many coats of epoxy?

I'll dig around and see what I can find. Answer is likely I have one and it'll be with me.

Lets see, I remember him turning 18... Is Art 21 yet? I dunno if he can get served at a liquor store to buy us all beer. Ah well, he can bring me a Mountain Dew instead.

Oh yeah, I remember you! Aren't you the guy who got distracted from rocketry by a girl? I can vaguely remember your words of wisdom that rockets are "cheaper than a girl". I guess you found out huh?

Yeah, I could help out with that possibly. I can certainly provide my 5" L3 project for display and almost certainly hang out for a few hours to gab with folks and represent NCR. My grandkids would co...

I'd have to say that looks like a gorgeous job. Makes you wish you had some hand-laid carbon fiber tube instead of PF green tubing... Nice pictures and a damn nice job. Hope I'm there to see it fly.
