Hello all - I am currently planning on bringing the following to LDRS, in hopes they might find a new home. Please drop me a line if interested, would prefer to hold items and then exchange real money on-site. Additional photos upon request. 7.5" PML Phenolic Qty (3) 48" Airframe Qty (2) 48"...

Still available!

900MHz Beeline GPS receiver with LCD screen - asking $120. Greg pairs these with transmitters (I've since lost or destroyed all of mine) meaning you'd need to source your own direct from him, and provide the receiver number.

I'm looking to buy a receiver compatible with Kate 1.0 or Kate 2.0 - these old receivers will not be compatible with Kate 3.0. Please contact me!

Still hung up on this topic, eh? Man, some people really never let things go. You call me immature, yet an internet troll who admits he's unqualified to judge me and instead feels like sitting there criticizing me on an open forum doesn't consider himself immature? Well, you kind of did that...

Wow, this thread has really gotten out-of-hand now... First, the important stuff. This project flew at 10:45 AM Saturday morning to 38,112', Mach 2.75. The airframe/fins survived, the motor hauled ass and DIDN'T CATO. As Crash-n-Burn pointed out, no time nor sense in building a "clone" of...

I think I'm learning towards taking cherokeej's lead and deleting a bookmark here, but best to finish what we started. So anyway, back to business. T-6 days until flight, and there's still more to do. But, this past weekend was huge, as both the airframe AND motor are 100% done. All that...

Say what you like. I've elaborated on my stance enough times here already. So you're saying that since talking about me behind my back (I know you enjoy doing that anyways) wasn't working for you, you've now tried resorting to posting publicly. Where's your logic there? And what "private...

Not a problem! Good to know I'm not the only person who doesn't like relying on club GSE - ha. "Fun," indeed...

Nice! Yep, my plan is to head up there early that morning, say 7:30 AM and have everything ready to go, so I can have the igniter in and be fully retreated when the clock strikes 8:00. Several of us have already requested the high waiver be open first thing. I'd offer you my launch controller if...

Currently I am targeting Saturday morning right when the waiver opens. Definitely, would be awesome if you're there to see it! Look forward to seeing your project, as well. Thank you again for the nice note - I really appreciate it! :) Did I see you're coming to BALLS this year?

Your contributions to this thread so far have been a) asking for the "Summer's Eve" meme to return, b) saying my project will violate TRA rules on the waiver, and c) hoping to expose my presumed lack of knowledge regarding motor design. You know what you're doing just as well as I do, but...

Fred - I appreciate your concern, but not sure why your activity on this forum consists almost entirely of insinuating (publicly) that my efforts are misguided, inadequate, and apparently sorely lacking in criticism. If you really think that my third N motor (did you catch the results of the...

Of course not! Don't be silly now... ;)

NXRS is now a mere 9 days away (that's horrifying - where in the world did all that time go), so it's crunch time. Since my last update, the motor for this project is now 100% mixed (but not complete - motor still awaits gluing and assembly) which is huge. Man your battle stations. My 20...

"If I had $75K lying around, we would be talking very soon..."

Your math is right but the max ceiling is wrong. It is 42,460' AGL so maximum for EX flights would be 38,214'. Again, unless I'm missing something...

OK guys, some of you are taking my "avoiding buying from rocketry vendors" a little too seriously... Justin - Loki is a good example there though. $20 when a similar product can be sourced for $5. Fred, obviously I have no issue with sourcing fiberglass from vendors. That may be a good...

Good comments here folks, thanks! Right - sims are topping out around 37K or so which is well within the 90% limit. I have a hotter motor in the works for BALLS... You may be right on orientation - I'll have to double-check. And yes, I'm adding a connector to the battery leads following...

WASHER, not snap ring.
