Keep in mind the issue isn't altitude, but air density. Warren

I plan on it... if it weren't for the laryngitis, I would definitely have been there Sat. AM at the very least. Now if only we could prevail on Gary Rosenfeld to start making some of those cool 24mm S...

Hell, before I discovered rocketry, I was a little basement bomber myself... making matchhead rockets in thin aluminum pipe at the age of 8... We ignited them by heating the aluminum pipe with a propa...

I had planned on being there, but a bad case of laryngitis kept me home. Couldn't talk and for a chatty bastard like me, that's intolerable in a social situation - moreover, I didn't want it to get wo...

I use an abrasive cutoff wheel on my chop saw. You and your dad are welcome to come down tomorrow and chop whatever you wish. It works well up to 4"... above that we have to get fancy. Warren

So many good ideas... I like this one too... though we'd want to scale the weight of the object appropriate to the impulse... hope you're feeling ready. See you next weekend Conway. Warren

I'm within a couple shop hours of having my GPS downlink system functional. The GPS works AND the serial RF data link works... just have to get the RS232 integration down... Then its just a packaging ...

Since I own six Missileworks RRC2X's, I can't say anything but good things about Jim's products. He does tell me that the MPAC has gone to the back burner and may not get moved back to the front of th...

There will likely be some considerable differences... and drag racing N motors will be expensive. My bird will be 9' of airframe and depending on whether I use the nose that came with it or a new nose...

If you're going to do the syringe thing, don't draw it back into the syringe, get the syringe all set, remove the plunger and then fill the barrel directly, reinsert the plunger and go. You really don...

I've gotten much better at judging foam volumes... small amount take a lot longer to cure as the stuff is exothermic like epoxy. More in one place results in greater heat, greater bubbling, greater vo...

There are a variety of formulations of 2 part urethane foams out there. PML happens to be a pretty agressive formula with approximately 25:1 expansion ratio for the straight up 50:50 mix. I ALWAYS foa...

I have to say, this Competitor 5 kit from Performance Rocketry that both of us bought is a great kit. I'm bashing the hell out of it, adding a tail cone, extending the motor mount to be large enough f...

I've built 2 birds with the Giant Leap 1/8" G10 honeycomb for fins and bulkhead material. I love the stuff. Expensive, but pretty easy to work and LIGHT!!!!. The biggest issue is edging it effectively...
