Somehow rocketry escaped my youth. Back in the 90s my nephews got involved and I sent one of them a rocket I picked up at a hobby store. About a month ago the Scouts set off some rockets. My seven year old son and I were most impressed. This week my sister gave the boy a RTF Estes Riptide. We had a blast launching that.
Today I went out and saw a club launch some more advanced rockets. I think we're going to like this.
One question I have not found the answer to. I see some folks interchange parachutes and streamers on the same rocket. If the shock cord is glued in, how does one take one out for the other?
This forum is fun to read!
