Unfortunately no... The booster was damaged on the first flight and we have not repaired it yet.No booster this time? That was pretty awesome.
Sweeet! Thanks for the honor! See ya there! :cyclops:Of course you can... We allow only the best stalkers to follow us!
Will be there bright eyed & bushy tailed for the mass launch. Hopefully food coma won't set in from lunch...We're looking at a Sat, Jun 12 launch, hopefully around noon or a bit before.
Lookin' good!Pictured is the new & improved Interceptor N before & after loading in trailer for trip to LDRS. Can't wait to actually get on the road .....
My understanding is the line from the deployment bag to the front section broke and failed to pull the d-bag off the main. Todd and his team were already talking about how to fix it. The fins were still rock-solid and there was just a little tweak in the body -- the av-bay took most of the damage.Awesome flight, why didn't the booster parachute deploy?
Awesome flight, why didn't the booster parachute deploy? Congratulations, went a lot better than many of the other big events, especially the Sweet 16 drag race. That was maybe 7 Aerotech J1999 catos at once:y:
Thanks again for all your help with our Talon. You and Todd certainly made our lives much easier!
And as I said previously, that was a beautiful flight. Here's hoping we get to see it again!
Perfect description Bondo! I was so wiped out this morning I forgot to bring the camera to work to review my photos... Gonna have to wait until tonight. LilminiJPC got a spectacular lift off shot, but I'll let her post it.
The official altimeter reading was beep-beep-beep, beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep, beep, beep-beep-beep... 3913!
Due to a shipping mix up, we ended up flying on an Aerotech N3300 instead of the CTI N3180 that we were expecting. I'll have to go back and check the numbers to see how close we came to what Rocksim was predicting...
Sorry about the launch system being goofy with your e-matches... I still don't know what is going wrong there... I'm going to talk to one of the electrical engineers here at work and try and figure out a fool-proof system and get to work on a new box...
Hi Rick! Anytime. Thanks a bunch for letting me tag along with your team! It was a lotta fun! Hope to be able to do it again for your guy's future projects!lilmini, you got some great shots of our project! Hope you can post a few more for us? Thanx for all your support & great pictures!
Hope Punk has some of his photos to post soon. Kinda hard to get back to the grind and family & still have time for TRF posting................
