HI! New guy here

[dedleytedley]

I'd like to say hello to everyone. I've been into rocketry for two years. My fleet is mostly 24mm powered larger model rockets including several LaunchPad kits. I have also made a few scratch rockets as well. I really like clusters and staging. I recently flew a TLP Pershing 1A on a cluster of 1-24mm +3x18mm and TLP's Nike-Ajax staged. Both survived to fly again. There are some poor quality videos of my flights on youtube under "dedleytedley". A special hello to fred22; I'm from Calgary. Where in Alberta do you hail from? Cheers Ted

How did you build that Nike-Ajax staged?I would love to see some pics of it I have one sitting in my build pile.

Hi Andy The mods began with the booster motor mount. I made one of the engine tubes plugged and mounted a two position switch in the side of it. The motor depresses the switch when in place, when it ejects(D-12-0) the switch allows current to flow through the igniter circuit. The top of the booster is an interstage I made with a 4 inch coupler. This holds the 9-volt for ignition. I've got to run right now, more details to follow... Ted
