I have been wondering what exactly will cause me to become un-addicted now, if anything. Hard to envision...I enjoyed it for a bit but didn't get back into it until about three years ago. Probably addicted for life now, lol.

Late 60's to 1970. Local hobby shop got some Estes kits, and being big on the Apollo program several of us from the neighborhood bought kits. No guidance but we got them together and they all flew. Mine was the V-2. We just flew in the front yard with trees all through the neighborhood. We didn't care and my brother was a good tree climber. Lost several and just went and picked up something new. Not sure if we did it from day 1, but we eventually ran extension cords from behind the couch in the living room. On the 2nd cord we cut off the receptacle, stripped the wires and attached alligator clips. On the countdown, at zero, you just plugged the 2nd cord into the first cord. Never had much trouble getting ignitors to light on 110 volts. 1971 I got a driver license and we could drive to a much better launch field and had a launcher we could run off the car battery. One neighbor kid bought a mosquito and launched it at night with a C6. We thought there was going to be a shoot star effect, but of course it was pffft, and it was gone. Good times.
