Thirsty, I'll go in halves with you! We can store the beast at my place in Fremont out of sight. And it will fit in my Highlander for transport to LUNAR and TCC launches. I even have a 12 ft chute sitting around waiting for a rocket to fit. Then all we'd need is a big motor sponsor...
Just PM'd AHansom to see if we can work something out for the good of the order. I just can't let Thirsty go hungry too.
Ok! If you can store it, then I am good with this plan! Are we really doing this?
And you’re right — now we just need some motor sponsors. It could end up that a free rocket is one of the most expensive things you could own. It looks like the L motors that are needed run about $200, more or less. And I don’t have hardware this size. Maybe a single-use DMS L1000 to about 1,500 feet just to see how it flies.
If you have a suitable chute, that would be great. What is the 12-footer like?
