    Looking for nose cone for an "Interceptor" 18mm rocket

    I got this rocket from the estate of Geoffrey Kerbel who was a longtime Arizona rocketeer. He built many rockets and ran the exhibits annually at the Arizona State Fair. Sure miss him. A while back I lost the nose cone in the desert. It isn't a Estets Interceptor. It looks like a tiny version...

    Sold R-DAS

    Wayco and I were cleaning out the cupboards in the Rocket Room and I found this box labelled "R-DAS". Picked it up from the big estate sale. It is 1999 technology so I am thinking it does not have great value. Instead of just pitching it out does anybody want it for the cost of shipping?

    Sharon and Mark Build our 3" Darkstars

    After Wayco flew his Blackstar at Airfest I got the urge to finally build my 3" DarkStar. Mark Stebbins had bought one also and was storing it at our house so I texted him and told him to get his body over here and build his with me. So Wayne pulled out the big table and I set up all my stuff...

    Sharon's Wild Thang Jr Build

    This will be my first Dual Deploy Rocket and I am building this to hone my skills for my Level Two Rocket. My last build was the Squat which I used to learn about avbays and altimeters. The next build will be a Wildman 5" Jart Dual Deploy with redundant altimeters - the Wild Thang Jr seemed to...

    Sharon's Squat Build

    Since receiving the disappointing news that the ARG launch had been cancelled I decided to assuage my sorrows by building the Squat that I purchased during the Black Sales. First thing was to take everything out of the package and read the instructions: They were really good instructions...

    Sharon's Jart Build

    Wayne said I had to write my own build threads now so here it goes and hopefully I won't embarrass myself......:smile: When Wildman had the Jart sale in August I Just Had To Get One....but it took until now (November) for me to actually get to building it. I was reviewing the Wildman site in...
