Advertisement: 29mm casing for a G

[Lucky 94]

I am looking for a 29mm casing for my new bird. It can be used and I have a bit of time.

 

[Lucky 94]

I have about120mm length in the model I am using.

 

[ben]

so buy a 29/120 and fly some redlines

www.commonwealth.net click "Rouse Tech" and get the 29/40-120 hobbyline. You can get the HPR but the hobbyline has the most motors available for a case (E,F,G) and you can now fly redlines in it

also, I suggest commmonwealth because they have good prices oin the case AND reloads. if you only want to buy the case, go to www.whatsuphobbies.com and save 5 bux or so. Not worth 2 seperate orders but you do as you please

I know how mowing money can be I have a to work my butt off in the summer in 100% humidity! But the payoff is great when I get to see one go off and I see all the ooo's and aaa's

Business is slow due to the cold, but I have a 20 dollar house and lawn keeping job, maybe my parents and a mulch job coming. My brother is moving in to my territory. I currently have 70, soon to be 30 dollars.

140 isn't a size. Here are Aerotech's 29mm MPR cases with motors they can use:
29/40-120 (5.6") E16W, E23T, F22J, F40W, F52T, G33J, G64W, G71R
29/60 (3.902") F37W, F62T
29/100 (4.902") G54W, G104T
29/120 (5.909") G77R, G79W

The 29/40-120 is definitely the most versatile as it can take multiple size reloads (E, F, and G). You will save a lot money because you only need one for about $43 instead of 24+27+31+40=$122 for the set of three plus closures (just the 29/120 with closures is $69). Finally, Hobbyline reloads (reloads for the 29/40-120) are much easier to find than reloads for the HPR cases. Many good hobby stores carry 29/40-120 loads, but very few have them for the other cases.

Well which one of those will fit into a motor that is 5.25in long.

Ted I just spent over half my money an ebay auction so I don't have much right at the moment. give me a chance to save back up.

29mm will fit 29mm...5.25" length will suffice, if there is enough to support the mount in the rocket, there should be enough to handle the case...in the future I would use at a minimum 10" long 29mm mount.

1) takes up a little more volume of the bodytube,

2) allows for an extra centering ring (I like three rings minimum)

Good luck...

Have you started a thread on your build? Maybe you could ask for 29mm suggestions there.

Why don't you just buy one from an online hobby shop? There are plenty, and you won't pay that much more than if you got a used one.

That is about what I paid for my 24mm reload recently. What is it with Hybrids that is great, I want to know to see if I should try it?

 

[Lucky 94]

Hybrids consist of a liquid oxidizer (usually nitrous oxide, but sometimes oxygen) and a solid fuel (plastic or wax-like substances). They have minimal regulated materials (APCP propellant--you can't buy over 62.5g without a LEUP (low explosives users permit)), which is for bigger ones, but irrelevant for G hybrids.

The downside to hybrids is that they are very complex and require expensive ground support equipment (like a $200 nitrous tank, solenoids, fill lines, expensive hardware). They are also require electronic deployment (an altimeter (~$100) or timer (~$30)) because they have no ejection charge built-in. Also it seems like they don't get off the ground very often--rarely on the first try.

Right now I don't have a riding mower,( we have had troubles with mowers in my family and they don't last 5 years.) I badly want to see an old aircraft engine in a mower or car. I got a make a rocket now to advertise my services to the neighborhood. ( not a big enough field)
