Thanks gentlemen for the intel. Wish I had more time to spend with him. Sounds like a Kosdon kind of guy :).

So I met this guy back around 2005 at an Argonia launch. It may have been LDRS or Airfest (I'm leaning on Airfest). Anyhow, he had a beautiful Phoenix missile-like model that was literally built around the Aerotech 54-1706 motor, and roughly 4" in diameter and maybe 3' tall. Big motor, little...

Haha. Taylor Swift Sunday. Very funny :p.

Thanks, Tim.

Anyone know if the old aRocket mailing list is still around? I was a member back in the late 90's and early 00's but eventually drifted away. However unlikely this might be, I was hoping to find some old emails I posted about a small bi-propellant rocket that a guy in Austin was working on (in...

Going big, very nice!

Yeah, super excited to see this build, and keep up the excellent work! Yes, I would go with the traditional paint and markings all the way. I would also join you for a trip to Ft. Lewis McCord to see the real thing, too :) . I'll at least add it to my todo list. What are you considering...

Yes, that is what I observed in those days as well. It was also available at PGI conventions. This was back in the early/mid 90's, and after that, it vanished.

Yes, bought my 54mm from Hobbytown Vegas while on vacation. This was approx 1994. They had HP relaloads, and Thermalight 😀.

Terrific build and a personal favorite rocket. Can't wait to see it finished!

Yeah, I noticed that, too. I'll probably pick some things up and would like a complete Sidewinder, but they are very expensive for what they are. For example, some parts are 3d printed, others machined, and others actual components. It's a mix and match and $5k+, thats a big ask to me...

Doh!

They sure are proud of that inert Hellfire, aren't they!?

Sweet, keep them coming!

Cool story, thanks for sharing!

That's the spirit!

Maybe I'm totally missing it, but is there a thread that's following the launches at BALLS. I see bit by bit on Facebook but haven't really spotted anything here. Thanks!

Oh, cool, Sooner Boomer! What's the story on these??

Wrong thread....

Oh, wow, that's cool!
