Whoa! That's an original RRC2, not the mini! That thing is awesome! I love the in built battery holder.

The one with the built in battery holder looks like a Co-Pilot built by Missileworks for PML and the CPR3K system.

Jim - whassup here - you unloading these?

[JDcluster]

Nope, It's the original RRC2.
I bought 2 & lost one a long time ago.... I still have the other one & had to send to Missile Works for repair last year, after finding broken solder joint on the battery connection.

He modded it for me incase it gives up entirely, so that you can plug the battery into the power switch terminal.

Judging by the serial number, he produced quit few of them....

It's a standard RRC2, not the PML version. Just very pristine, Ken had a coupla of them. New old stock.
The other one is the Extreme version, with out built on battery holder.

I have a 3rd tentatively sold, but yet to receive the funds.

60 for the Standard. 65 for the Extreme.

I'm leaning more to data collection now. These are posted in response to an ongoing deal. But if it does not reach fruition, yes they are for sale.

[tfish]

if the extreme does not sell..I'll take it..PM sent.

Not for sale, but this is the altimeter sled I used in my 1/2 scale Nike Smoke. It will fit any of my rockets 5.5" and up with my standard 1/2" center rod.

[JDcluster]

Is that second altimeter an old Adept RAS2?

60 for the Standard.

It's like he tries to torture me...

I'm assuming the sled coming in the Little john is similar to the one the extreme is mounted on right?

Identical ,except the MAWD gets mounted to one side. It's narrower & would not straddle the central tube that goes on the tie rod. I even threw in the battery box and soldered leads.
It's also labeled for both a MAWD & HiAlt 45 settings and the writing coated with epoxy so it won't wear off!

All you got to do is bolt on your altimeter , install a new battery & go fly the darn thing.

By the way I would recommend setting the Mach delay for 4 seconds and leaving it that way. Then you won't forget to do it when the time comes. I guarantee you won't be flying anything that approaches needing more than that. BUT most forget the mach effect can start way before mach.... around .75/.80 and that's where most folks get in trouble, having a deployment due to the shock wave happening at motor burn out.

Just "set it & forget it" trust me on this one!

There isn't much rocketry related I wouldn't trust you on. Unless you told me to glue darkstar fins to my hand. Because when I get CA on my skin I pick at it and it bugs the crap out of me :tongue:

Oh, Jim wouldn't recommend that!

However, he might recommend gluing your phone to your head.... Isn't that right, Jim?

Actually, I HAVE done that. I was tacking the fins on my drago, and got some CA on my thumb, it got transfered to my phone when someone called right then, and the keypad stuck to my cheek.

It happens :rofl:

Guess you just joined the duma$$ club!:wink:

Along with me. It stuck to my hair. my only remedy was to cut it all off!

Kevin.... you get a free pass this go around. I'm feeling forgiving.

My latest CA adventure was throwing a tube in my dop kit and forgetting about it......yeah it leaked all over and I ended up gluing my toothbrush to my hand when reached in to pull it out at the hotel. At least I didn't stick it in my mouth to brush.

I could write a CA adventure book .

Braden here's the test.... all good.

Only took 30 seconds of HARD mixing, back & forth.
