Yes at least for Wildman. Watch the vendors section for other vendors showing up. I'm sure there will be more1) Can you typically pre-purchase motors and pick them up on site for LDRS?
At potter spectators are free, everyone else will probably have to pay something. Occasionally they let kids fly for free with a paid adult Don't make that your plan until they announce that.2) I was scanning previous LDRS information and saw some had admission fees. Usually a fee for each adult accessing the range, kids flew for free under supervision of adult accessing the range. Spectators were free. Any ideas what the fee schedule might look like for LDRS 42?
If you've got mobility issues, this field will be problematic. generally only flyers are permitted beyond the flight line, but I can't speak for URRG. I can say that the field is plowed mostly peat, so it's a bit of a slog that will sap your strength. I don't think mobility aides will be of any use - they will sink further or become mired in the dirt. Walkers and wheelchairs would be a disaster, the ground would never be firm enough and flat enough to support that. Carts and scooters are a no-go in the past, and the terrain is against them, anyhow. I once saw someone try to use a mountain bike, but they gave up in short time.3) For the adults accessing the range part, does this include adults that are their just to go on a scavenger hunt to retrieve your rocket if you have mobility issues? (I understand we may be able to hire child slave labourers to retrieve rockets if we don't have our own to bring)
I realize a lot of info will become clearer in 2024 after they have their meeting in I think its January. This is PURE speculation at this point.
LOL! Excellent advice...Bring them all.
Launch what you can.
Talk about the others.
Oh man, I can't bring all of them, I'd need yo rent a U-Haul......

And there's a lot more now.
That's not *that* bad, as a lot of those are smaller rockets. I'm currently building myself so many larger rockets that I either need to build an extension onto the house or start moving some of these into a storage unit. They populate the spare bedroom, the kitchen and the living room, I've entirely run out of shelving, and I still have 30+ that compromise the "build pile" (admittedly, most of those are Estes kits, but I have a Dragon Rocketry Crayon, and a few other 4" diameter / 5+ foot tall builds in progress).

And I have a small car. Chances are I am only bringing one or two to LDRS, and, going with the theme, they will be my larger builds (i.e. LOC IV or bigger). I'll just fly what I can bring as many times as I can. Once I load up the car with all the stuff I need to carry, I hope I still have room for rockets.
