When nesting Aero Pack retainers, is it okay to have the casing only attached at the retainer end or does the casing need to be supported further up? The 75mm and 98mm adapters come with a metal centering ring for that purpose. But what about going 54mm to 98mm? It would not be hard to have a...

Question: If a deployment charge is placed closer to the wall of, say, a 5.5" body tube is there a chance of failed separation due to binding from unequal pressure inside the cavity?

Just pulled the trigger on a Madcow/RW 4" Nike Smoke with the molded fins. Been on the list for a long while. So, its just a few pieces (https://www.apogeerockets.com/Rocket_Kits/Scale_Rockets/Nike_Smoke_4in_Fiberglass)... But there are a few things to think about like rail button stand offs...

What diameter rockets and motors do you prefer or fly most often? Choose what comes closest from the available choices. Select all that apply. Feel free to explain and add other preferences (e.g., cardboard vs fiberglass, DMS vs RMS, single vs dual deploy, etc) in your post.

There are many reasons why someone may choose a certain diameter/weight high power rocket they have built and flown as their favorite. But when it comes to value, how do you determine the best "bang for the buck?" For some, size matters and bigger is better. For others, cost of acquisition and...

Answered the doorbell an hour ago, found this, and started to fret. Glad it was all fiberglass parts! Initial USPS notification of pickup of this Priority package was on Aug 10 in Greensburg, PA the day after it was ordered. The same day it made it to the Warrendale, PA distribution center. Then...

There is only one Aerotech reload for the for 38/1320 hardware, the J510. Everyone who has reported, praises the motor. But how many J510s do you burn? Or do you use adapters for 38/1080 and 38/720 reloads to expand the usefulness of the hardware? Or did you buy the case just so you had a full...

Looking for a good condition blue RT 38/1320 case to fill out the set. If no one has it, the WM Aerotech sale will get another member's money.

Is there a strength advantage to applying an epoxy fillet to the inner booster tube/fin junction? It has not been clear in posts and instructions whether or not to do this. For someone who is rather clumsy with Rocketpoxy, more fillets adds an appreciable weight penalty. If there is not a...

18-20 October (https://tccrockets.com/v2/) 3-day FunFest that draws major vendors and includes a night launch. If you don't know the draw for TCC events (like LDRS 37), then you just haven't been paying attention to the Central California scene. As a casual rocketeer, opportunities to launch...

Anyone know about this? https://www.aerodefensetech.com/component/content/article/adt/features/insider/35226?utm_source=SAE_Aero_News&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20190919&oly_enc_id=0806E4435578D5U

Never liked the abrupt transition from one to three, so a nosecone was cut up to taper tail end. Bit of a hack job so lots of filler. Won't be pretty but with three Estes E9-4s, it may no last very long anyway. If it does, there are another 5 flights-worth of E-9s to burn. Added a threaded rod...

Can someone help me update my eggfinder LCD receiver using a Mac? I have downloaded CrossPack-AVR but am unsure of how to proceed. The guide on the eggfinder website only lists the steps using the Win-AVR system.

Two beautiful blue Rouse-Tech 38/240 cases with huge variations in markings. Never expected to have one with a typo. Does the one without the logo even come close? From top to bottom, the size, material and threads are exactly the same. Any reason to doubt their integrity or provenance?

What was the sale price? Do you plan to use it to get your Level 2 or Level 3 certification? Will this be your first opportunity to try out a 75mm motor?

Just picked up an Orion Starliner from Dynasoar Rocketry and need a 24/20-40 RMS-RC. Anyone have one that you are willing to part with or where to get one? Seems like they are out of stock everywhere I've looked.

It appears that the Eggtimer needs at least two batteries function. Both Eggtimers I have are set up for a 9v battery for deployment leaving a 3.7v battery (Lipo, I presume) for everything else. If so, where do people put the second battery on an Adaptive Aerospace 54mm altimeter sled...

Thirsty did it. He goaded me to share my fantasy of taking a 5.5" LOC Precision Big Nuke and turning into a jet fighter. And he even put a deadline on it - LDRS 37. So off I go into the Wild Blue notching it up with larger diameter, larger 54mm motor, asymmetrical protrusions, and who knows...
