I used a few different search terms here but cant seem to find much on the 429 here.
anyhooo, I scratchbuilt a 429ss from parts I had laying around. and now time to decide maiden flight motors. im thinkin a pair of AT F50's maiden flight.
then got to surfin the web and didn't find much on what others have stuffed in their 429, which most of what I found ws on rocketreviews.
soooo, anyone care to share their motor choices and experiences with them choices? im getting rather geeked to get some rockets up. I PLANNED a few eeks ago, which was going to involve a G75 in my hawk, but plans changed.
now im planning this weekend, but those plans may change.
heck, I took my great nephew(3 years old) out to the little park behind us yesterday to launch a couple estes rockets. he was all excited. had a little problem with my little estes lancher so we walked back and WE fixed it. yes, WE- tht lil guy is always wanting to help 'fix it." got back to the park, pencil rocket on the pad....then the wind picked up instantly. it bummed me out, the lil guy took it better than me!!! he just wanted to play.LOLOL
