I'm borrowing one.
But, it looks like the launch of the Minuteman will be postponed due to wind.
I'll get you guys an update tonight.


Thanks,

Yep, just as I thought..
Winds were WAY to strong to fly the Minuteman..
The new flight will be scheduled for the spring.


Thanks,

Getting back to this again.


Hoping to fly this on an F10 which would get it to 6500' or I could do it on the new Aero-Tech G12 long burn, which would get me to about 8500' or so..

Hopefully I can get my hands on a G12, Hey @ATGM when will these be available? Or, I could demo one...


I have attached the streamer, which is simple flagging tape, the streamer is about 6 ft long, is this enough?


Hoping to launch this fall, along with my Wildman Rocketry Blackhawk 38, which will fly on a small H motor to 2500'

Just hoping the Ohio weather will for once cooperate in my favor.

Have a read and you should have an idea of what you'll need for safe descent
