Let's just say the chute rig would have to be so far beyond bombproof it wouldn't be funny. Man-rated is a helluva lot harder to do than Level 3... Warren

Now lets see... how many wraps of 6oz glass will we need and how many O motors...? Warren

No snakes or animal life to speak of except left overs from Burning Man, which happens a few weeks before BALLS. Mainly it's dust - superfine, alkaline, incredibly pervasive; and wind to blow it arou...

I'm thinking about it seriously. I'm planning my L3 for MHM... if I succeed and the bird survives the flight, I'd like to fly it on an EX N motor at BALLS perhaps. I don't want to stay at Bruno's and ...

Quite right Conway - I was just remembering the Delta II project I was involved in and the 9 CTI 38mm cases we had to scrounge for all the H motors and forgot that the safety code prohibits what we di...

Cesaroni 38mm motors can be used the way you describe with a PVC or other spacer. With an AMW or AT case, not a chance. Personally, I own the AMW 54/2550 case which translates into quite a few K's and...

Jeremiah is MrTidy these days, not MrClean. I just had lunch with him today talking about the upgrades we're doing to this website. Glad to see he dragged someone else into the hobby. Welcome and hope...

My Cirrus Dart was the first HPR bird I built and I wrapped three full wraps of 6oz glass around that baby. It flew successfully a three times and the forth flight was a spur of the moment attempt at ...

If you're planning an online store, you'll need a bit more than what you can get for $5.95 a month. A simple presence-site with static content can easily be done that way and that's probably the way y...

I think we should look at it before we go making any suppositions about how rigid the uprights are. Rings are for towers that aren't built well enough to maintain their spacing from bottom to top. The...

Personally, if I were to drop my own money on a tower, I'd get that tower launcher you and I are always drooling over (www.towerlauncher.com) and call it good. Hell, with that it'd be a very unlikely ...

Tim, what would be the issue with the club buying it from GLR? By all means bring it out so we can check it out. If it fits our needs and everyone says great, we'd probably prefer the club own it so t...

My vacuum pump pulls to 25" Hg... don't know what that corresponds to altitude-wise or in millibars or whatever, but it sure can pull v-bagging down tight on a lay-up. Warren

Indeed, the micron is 1 millionth of a meter and was originally called the micrometer. (See millimeter, centimeter, decimeter, etc. etc.) However, I think it popular culture making it a millionth of a...
