FWIW, I just so happened to see these on sale today (on the 'Deal of the Day') on Ebay, $56.99 with free shipping.

Even less expensive than Amazon...
Great. Now I'm spending my rocket money on parts to get my RC10GT goin'
Thanks alot axtcple...:eyeroll:
BTW, there is a ton of RC stuff on Ebay. Imagine that.
I bid on a pair of CF shock...
Ok, question...my RC10-GT (that I bought used) has an upgraded motor. The only ID I can find on it is an 'M', with a '12' under that. Any idea what motor that is?
---5 minutes later----
I may...
I was into RC before I got into rocketry. I have nitro and electric, a HPI Savage, an older RC10-GT, and a couple of the E-maxx trucks. I bought the new 'waterproof' version (3903) of the E-maxx...
I'm surprised no one has mentioned OpenRocket. It would be interesting to compare a sim file with real world testing. The mass could be added to the rocket in the simulation, to at least give you a...
While I can't see needing this for my LPR and MPR rockets, I would certainly be interested when I get into high power.
However, I did send someone in your direction from USLI working on a 8"...
I will be following this thread, I have been curious as well.
I tend to put too large of Kevlar in my rockets, I figure better safe than sorry.
I see the Kevlar Store has good prices on both...
Thanks! Glad you like it. The fluorescent colors I used have hardly any gloss at all. I was going to clear-coat it, but I was afraid Murphy may be watching. :dark:
BTW, I used Ace Hardware brand...
According to the paperwork from our realtor, our house was built in 1880. At has been added onto at least twice by previous owners, and everything has been updated. When I remodeled the kitchen, I...
KenStarr, thanks for the link to efabricsupplier. I wasn't really looking that hard, but I was looking for thin mil nylon. I normally get Top Flight chutes, but something other than their orange thin...
I found the secret with spray bombs is to hold the can far away, like two feet, and start spraying before it's even close. I use big sweeping motions.
I did my Super Neon XL like that...

Geez you guys! I try to read through this post, and, well...I don't have a clue what you guys are talking about.
Betchya can't rebuild a Quadrajet though. :p
If you had to Google what that...
I just so happen to building one of those, too, except mine's gonna be an 18mm powered.
I usually buy the bulk-packs of motors, and have lots of 'A' motors left to use. That, and I only have one...
I've been trying different types of glue, to keep from having to sew it. (The sewing machine I have is older than I am, and weighs more than McKaila!)
I started off on one edge of the fabric with...
While it may not be a full-on CAD program, I like to play with Sketchup. It seems to be a pretty powerful program to do 3D modeling, and best off....it's free! I would not use it enough to justify...
Highsky, I actually found a 1/16th inch round-over bit, this one (link), but I purchased mine locally. Menards I think. I also made a small router table with an adjustable fence. When I get up the...
I had thought of mixing grains in a AT 29/40-120 case. Baybe a partial grain of an F22, and a part of a F40 to make a 'Jack White' motor. Or even make up some 'Thunder and Lightening' burns?
Of...
I'll admit, I didn't really consider that. Besides, that motor tube is heavy duty, it's a Wildman! And with the minimal scoring I did on the fins and airframe, I'm not too concerned about it. I drop...
Chadrog, didn't you use a 'Great Stuff' type thing in one or two of your builds?
Tim, why would the foam liquefy "after a while"? I would have to disagree with that statement. The foam I shot into...
Just curious, what type of epoxy are you using? I used the Proline 4100 (from Wildman) when I built my Wild Child and Drago...in the kitchen. I didn't really smell much of anything, and my wife never...
Ahhh yes, the sump pump... My advice, get the best one that you can. If they recommend a 1/3HP, get a 1/2HP. Why strain a small pump when it's easy work for a larger one?
The one that came with...
So, BB, made any progress on that balsa yet?
Borrow some of your moms fingernail files, and just do it! Try it 'by hand' first. Take your time.
Go with the grain, sand lightly untill you get a...
Yes, exactly!
I've been a member on this forum since February of 2010. Looking back at my posts, sometimes I even chuckle. I have asked some silly questions, without even really thinking about it...
My Kevlar showed up today! Not bad, I ordered it Thursday night, and it was in my mailbox on Monday.
I got two pieces, roughly 8x11, for $7.50, including shipping. It's "6.5 oz. fabric", and it...
BB, there are yet some of us left that want to help you, but part of that is trying to figure it out on your own.
I showed you my beveling jig, that I made for exactly zero dollars, from just...
Oh, silly me, I thought it was because you are Mannys Kid.
Er, wait...you are! :lol:
This is a gadget I made for beveling my fins. 98904 98905 98907 98908
2 pieces of thick glass (from a halogen light), a piece of aluminum angle, some masking tape, and a fingernail...
Twelve bucks?! Try $4.98...
The expensive part is the micro SD card, I recommend getting a 'good' one.
How could you have been looking since July, and not found one by now? They are all over...
I've never been one for following directions very well. I didn't sand any of the fiberglass...I did this instead.
I've built my WildChild and Drago like that, and now working on my Mini Dark Star...
