That makes me laugh. If I had only known.They were never really NOT available. Tommy was so swamped with orders he removed it from the website, but they were still available. he sold thousands of them, colleges and the Gubmint bought them by the hundreds.
I lost my 4" Rocket R&D on one that was supposed to be fixed.
Never again!

Why was it the Adept 22's fault you lost your rocket?
That was my understanding of what happened as well.They were never really NOT available. Tommy was so swamped with orders he removed it from the website, but they were still available. he sold thousands of them, colleges and the Gubmint bought them by the hundreds.
Mine has always flown in the same compartment as a BRB900 and it works fine.Mild cautionary note here. Be careful with the high powered GPS dog-trackers. Will cause the 22 to shut down. With the lower powered trackers, I'd do an extended ground test with the 22 connected up with bare ematches and the tracker running for 30 to 60 minutes. If the 22 doesn't shut down, blow the ematches or recycle, the tracker is probably compatible with the 22.
Of course if you do what I do and fly it in smaller sport rockets without an Rf tracker, it's a great reliable little unit. Kurt

Nice little altimeter (was the 1st altimeter I ever bought, come to think of it) - very handy as a backup in one of my 4" av-bays. It has probably flown on the order of a dozen times now, maybe more...
I fried my Adept22 in my booster of Demon and Dopey... Forgot that the arming alt was about 50 feet higher than the booster was supposed to go.
I really need to pick one up sometime.
Somehow mine has managed to survive all this time!Yup. Virgin altimeter.
