There's already a CTI thread on RP but from what I gather TRF is getting allot more traffic these days.

With that being said I wanted to start a similar CTI thread here, One where new products, Pic's and everything CTI can be shared.

I know recently allot of new CTI loads were certified so Dr J. once your ready were all ears.
 
Going to buy a 38mm starter kit in the CTI Pro38 product range for my L1 and L2 quite soon just as soon as I'm done some personal auto and house BS.

You'll LOVE 'em! I have a decent supply of the 29mm and 38mm stuff. Still gotta get a rear closure and a couple of spacers for my Pro54 hardware.
 
Really! hope this one got certified at the last session, The 3G 75mm L1350CS, Put this 32lb Slug to 6235'

theres NO turning back now... CTI for life.. :dark:
 
Flew my first two P29 reloads Saturday, a G and an H. The H was for my L1 attempt (successful!).

I had spent the previous two hours trying to get my (Apogee) F10-8 to light for a different rocket. 3 failed attempts using copperhead igniter, then one failed attempt with someone's home-built igniter.

But then the Cesaronis both lit on the first try. I'm a fan now...just placed an order for a P38 starter kit, and 4 reloads :)

This is the best shot I have of a CTI motor. It is 2-K590 DT motors coming up to pressure simultaneously, for an amazing drag race !
 
Hi Folks! Thanks for Gary for starting this thread. Great idea. For a while we may double-post on RP and TRF and then see how things go.

Great shot of the K590's. I really like it. Here is another one. Pro29-6G Green3 H159 courtesy of Greg Smith.

Here is my WildMan Space Cowboy on a K1440 on it's way to 19'570' at mach 2.04

This took 2nd place in Thunderstruck's Mach Madness Race.

All 3 fins had melted paint on the leading edges and the nosecone tip was peeled of paint. I plan to strip the paint and try it again on the same motor. I think the peeled paint may have slowed it down a bit. Next attempt will be at MWPX (Judy, rematch??)

Any plans for a 54mm 6XL W.T. load???

Nice!

Planning on a K360 for my first flight of the 4" Darkstar DD
 
My favorite motor of CTI's (so far), is the M2250 Cstar. This motor took my little rocket to 21,000 feet!

That the one you're using for your L3 cert?
 
My L3 attempt last October a PML Ultimate Endeavour on an M1300 Dual Thrust.
