Gelcoat is a waste of time. So long as it's dimensionally correct, I wouldn't worry about it. You're going to sand and fill it anyway or at least prime and sand it. Without gelcoat, it's more likely t...

I wouldn't mind an accelerometer in ADDITION to the baro sensor as long as the baro sensor is the primary trigger for deployment. Jim, Would you be considering a more complete suite of features includ...

Conway, Jim has been talking about doing an all-surface mount 10 or 12 bit altimeter with EEPROM memory for the last altitude recorded for at least 2 or 3 years - probably predating the MPac project. ...

You're way late - both of you. I told Jim last year when he first told me about these units I wanted dibs on the first 6 production units. I may even have given him money down. Warren

Give me a couple days and I'll get a page up with the rail dimensions and some other related technical details. Warren

We have a little Blacksky rail that should work for that. Maybe 3/4" at the biggest and possibly smaller. Warren

If it weighs more than a pound, you have no business flying it off a rod. Rail guidea and rails are the way to go. While NCR does maintain a nice selection of rods from the smallest 1/8" rods up throu...

I surely hope you're flying while I'm LCO (Friday AM 8 to noon and Saturday AM 8 to noon). I'll give good color commentary... LOL 🙄 Warren

I've flown Apogee F10's off 3' and 4' 1/8" rods with no problem. The only problem I've ever had is getting them to light. Warren

I know of at least 3 people who've said they're flying their SSSS bird at MHM. Warren

Give me a price.... Warren

I hope you used rail guides instead of launch lugs of some size over 1/4". While we will put up 1 each of 3/8" and 1/2" rods, don't count on good on them as rails are by far becoming the preferred met...

Sure you can - as many times as you've got rockets to lose or destroy. Warren

I did my L2 with dual deploy and redundant altimeters, charges and e-matches. I wanted to make sure I could do it before I started spending money on an L3 project. Warren

Great report... sorry about the bird... remind me to tell you about how I found a borrowed transmitter without the rocket and without an antenna someday... and Kyle, you really need to work on your pu...
