True James - didn't even notice that. I'm waiting until Deb sends me the card. Sent everything off on Monday after O'fest. Should have it in a week or so. Warren

There is also RASAero, another freeware/open source rocket simulation package. Warren

Yes, I've personally felt that Total Impulse is a better contest than AP weight. Jeremiah and I will meet later this week to discuss. Warren

Allowing EX motors is an intrinsic part of this Doug. We want to allow for EX motors as well as arbitrary clusters and staged birds. There even is a good plan for how to do this - the dilemma is that ...

As I've said before Doug, it has ALWAYS been a function of programmer bandwidth. The AP Bonfire as well as pretty much all the other contests run automatically once we set them up. If they require mu...

From a database perspective, I think we'd need to have a table for motors used that would be linked from the flight record table via a unique ID as a one to many relationship from the flight record. I...

Jeremiah and I have been talking about this for over a year. It will involve changes in the launch logs and launch log cards we use as well as some substantive database changes on our site. On the oth...

We'll see what Joe says, but in general we ask for the dates high altitude windows when we apply for the waiver in November/December of the year before. Since we've had the windows, we generally ask f...

I've got at least one and possibly 2 RRC2X altimeters I'd be willing to part with for an appropriate deal. Warren

Now Doctor J, we should discuss. What I really want is an N1100. I bought (and still have) an M795 for my L3 cert, but ended up flying an AT load because I wanted to keep the altitude down. What kind ...

As I understand it, thrustcurve.org supports remote queries. Might be interesting to look at the idea of dumping our database completely and using the thrustcurve database. All we need to mine from it...

Unfortunately, the old code from the website I took over computes AP bonfire by total propellant weight and not by type of propellant. BP is also added in. We are working on a fix to this as manually ...

Kilograms

#1 - typically folks use 4F Black Powder, the stuff they use for flintlock priming pans. #2 - Yes, but a limited number of stores stock 4F. It's a lot easier to find 3F and 2F and Pyrodex. #3 - I use ...

It worked fantastic for me. (DC20 in my case). The button was pushed and we were back to the pad within 30 minutes. If Chris had driven faster, we might have been able to do it within 10 or 15 minutes...
