Point taken...we don't have them here...:-)



I wish we didn't have them here, but that's a political statement that doesn't belong in this thread.

Shit, my shop is dangerous enough already. I have two dogs that come to work with me every day and I'm pretty sure they are both lucky to be alive.

Move along, nothing to see here..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Sent a pm, Joe. Either color works for me, but black might be better? ...the darkside might be darker than blue or red ya know? I like grey shirts...

Shirts have been ordered. Delivery date is set for the 16th, so expect yours a week later. (Unless you depend upon a queen to bring yours....)

Thanks to everyone who participated. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Special delivery from England!

And proof that the "Ten Finger Edition" is correct for the shirts.

Actually, high power.

Those are on the wall from the kids' builds.

Here's a K550 about to depart:

I had video on board.

Here is a single frame from the moment the drogue charge went off at apogee.

This was right at 5000' (1.53KM for our friends in Europe):

Shirts have arrived!

Standby for yours.

If you have a freebie coming and I don't have your address, you should send me your address.

If you want a cool $20 T-shirt, go ahead and pay, please....

Were just jealous that you get to play with that super awesome toy!

What kind of camera did you use for that pic?

Ok, ok I'll respond...cool pic..hahaha

What kind of license, clearance or paperwork is involved with that? I take it a no fly zone?

Solid or liquid fuel?

Seen the 3D printed engines yet?

Pre GoPro days. this is only about 1000'

That's better. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)

I don't remember the camera. A very small rectangular arrangement that stuck out a square hole just enough to have the lens look down along the fuselage.

Not a GoPro. It's smaller and lower resolution.

I only fly solid motors. I just do it for fun. Solid motors are easy.

Flyers have to have a license for anything above a "G" motor. There are three levels: Level 1 is H and I motors, Level 2 is J, K and L and Level 3 is M and up.

I have an L2 license and don't know if I'm going to get the L3. Every L3 launch costs a minimum of $600 and takes a bunch of planning and time.

We fly at a sod farm out in the boonies that has a standing NOTAM from the surface to 10K' on the second Saturday of the month. That's today, so we are headed out.

We watched an N shot today. It was a rocket that was about 17' tall and a hundred pounds.

15,000' and above Mach 1.

It was cool.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

We use electronic altimeters to set off charges at different altitudes to manage the recovery.

Main parachutes are typically deployed at 700', so as to decrease the walk.
