Ron, High Desert Rocketry Association is holding its second launch this Saturday, June 24 about 42 miles north of Idaho Falls. We don’t have a lot of info yet as we are still building a web site, but you can send me an email at [email protected] for more info. Currently NAR and working...

Fudd, I am in Idaho Falls. To the best of my knowledge, there are no rocketry related laws. Well - fireworks may not go in the air, but otherwise none. There is a lot of BLM ground around, and there is a large expanse of Lava fields to the west of Rexburg. We had a very wet spring, which grew a...

John, It took me three times to make sense of the 'plywood a human can eat' statement... glad i dont live in the evil-doer nation of Kalifornia! Thanks for bringing this one back, will get a couple kits coming when they become available. TimE

John, Thank you for keeping the hobby alive! Materials really dont matter much to me, I'd rather see reasonable accuracy; scale and perhaps semi-scale. Can you do any of the Space-X designs? Falcon Heavy would be cool, and they just released a new design, Interplanetary Transport System...

I have had a similar story... when I was a kid, it was stuff the biggest motor in that I could buy. Now, I am finding that I am enjoying more of the science, I sim a build, and see how close my actual results are to expected. TimE

I've got all my old catalogs from 76 to 81 when I first flew, and 93, first BAR, 2004, 05 2nd bar and now 2013 and 2014. The old ones are like my best oldest friends... I recently tried to spread sheet all my kits, builds and flying rockets, and so I used the catalogs as reference materil...

Thank you for sharing, fascinating stuff. There is a telemetry ring or avionics bay (actual name escapes me) for a Sat V at McMinnville air & space museum, I was all over it about 6 years ago. TimE

Very nice work Nathan. See, I told ya it would buff right out. That hard line below the porsche emblem would be a tough one to make dissappear, and you nearly have done that too. TimE

Huh. I ordered one the day the link showed up and it arrived last friday. (2014)

Mr. Boren, thank you for the fun new designs. I appreciate the more complicated models that Estes has been coming out with the last couple of years. Job well done. TimE

Here is photo proof... along with a few winterbuilds waiting for a warm day.

Er... it was pretty easy. I ordered it off their website. Used points earned from the super sale. Also bought a Red Max parachute for one of my builds. Ordered the 21st. I am only two states away. TimE

Flipped thru my 2014 Estes catalog that came in todays mail... So many rockets, so little time! TimE

I dont believe it... there is no way to navigate there at night, its too dark. TimE

As they say, "That will buff right out". Oh wait, its Nathan... I am certain that your repairs will never show!

Gordon at Excelsiorrocketry.com prints waterslide decals of most Estes kits.. I have bought from him several times, he is reasonable and fast. TimE

l Polished my big daddy.

I must brag, I have never lost a rocket! However, I recall sending many into low orbit, as they never returned.

Well, as a result of two large boxes of new Estes Kits, I somehow ordered a Partizon (EST 9702) when I had intended on ordering the Nike Smoke (est 9704)... So just throwing it out there, anyone want to trade my Partizon kit for their Nike Smoke Kit? Pm me to work out details. TimE Idaho
