Only thing I'd add Teddy is if there is a "personal relationship" do the request via private email so's not to put the person on the spot. Anyhow I'm glad you feel you did well Connor and best wishes for tweaking the scores the second time around on the SAT. Kurt

Kurt, let people communicate the way they like to . . . no need to police their posts, unless you're a moderator. Jus' sayin'

Thank you very much Hank...
This was totally unnecessary....

As some of you may have seen Cris just released a new simple mini altimeter call the quark. The altimeters run for $20 and have some amazing features. I will be assembling these for $7 a kit.
 
So just like all of the other electronics I will assemble an eggtimer quark free for the first person to send me one with $$ for sending it back. It is not out yet but I will need someone to send me one ;)
 
Got my quark from Connor yesterday and all I can say is that it's tiny... Thanks Connor!

Yeah, sure is small. I did an Rf ground test with live ematches attached and the only thing I succeeded in accomplishing was a change in the beeper tone with the antenna touching the opto-isolator chip and 5 watts Rf in various pulses. With the antenna next to the Qwark, I
couldn't elicit any adverse behavior. The EggTimer flight computer follows the same design so I'd expect it may respond in the same fashion with testing.

There was no reset or firing of the ematches so that is a very encouraging finding.

I've had a charge fire on ascent one time on a flight that was less than Mach and had a 5 second Mach delay anyways. Likely related
to a tracker.
Also had the charges fire on the pad. Turned the altimeter on, started beeping ready and while I was putting the igniter in
the motor, the beeping stopped. Didn't register on my brain then I jumped back and realized that a charge might fire.
Sure enough the apogee charge blew and while I was fumbling for the key for the keyswitch, the main charge fired with the upper bay
laying 15 feet away. No harm or damage to anyone but to say the least, I'm sensitive to Rf issues. Beware of the 2 watt dog-trackers and make sure your hardware is compatible with it first before flying. Kurt
 
I"M DONE FOR NOW.


I'm 16 so my summers are pretty packed with hanging out with friends at my lake house on lake George, Rockets are the least of my priorities. Due to this my "products" and service have become sub par. I will be picking up again after summer is over and I'm not busy.All current orders will be fulfilled so don't fret if you've already contacted me.

-Thank you

You might want to announce that on your website as I suspect folks will still be trying to contact you? That's fine if you still want to negotiate extended build times and such and will pick up after the summer. Kurt
 
Ok I'm back in business I've gotten all the orders i had piled up finished. The problem was that i was getting 8+ orders a week and for a one man show it got hard to complete everything in a reasonable amount of time. Any ways if anyone needs anything done shoot me an email :)

Great to hear you're up again. I believe there are quite a few out there that would like to consider ET devices but are put off by the build process.

Glad your back Connor. Keep up the great work. The world needs more young people like you.
 
I'm happy to say I got my 100th Customer yesterday!! Thanks everybody for the continued support and I look forward to reaching customer #200!

Thanks Prophecy....

I've said it before and I'll say it over and over, Connor does great work!. If there are still some of you out there that are still on the fence about
weather or not to get an Eggtimer product, go ahead and pull the trigger. They work great, you CANNOT beat the price and you can get Connor
to assemble it for you, what are you waiting for????!!!!!!!

I just wanted to post this update to let everyone know whats going up. I started school again, Senior year!! Because of this I'm no longer able to do orders everyday like I could during the summer because of HW, sports and such. I'm pretty much limited to an hour or two from M-T then Friday afternoon and the weekend. I just wanted to put this out there so people know what to expect as there have been some people who are expecting things the next day.


Thanks Everyone!
 
Hey Everyone Its been awhile! It came to my attention the other day that Cris has new product coming out, the WIFI switch. I think this is an amazing piece of hardware! I will put each of these together for $7 plus shipping. I updated the first post of this page and my website!
